About the clinic
PET-CT with Gallium 68 (PSMA) is a molecular imaging test used to detect prostate cancer metastasis at Medipol Mega University Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. This diagnostic scan typically runs around $1,900 and is the most precise method currently available for tracking the spread of prostate cancer cells. The clinic's JCI-accredited imaging department provides standardized results that meet international safety and accuracy benchmarks.
What the Diagnostic Detects
The PET-CT scan using the Gallium-68 PSMA tracer targets specific proteins on the surface of prostate cancer cells. This helps doctors find small clusters of cancer that standard imaging might miss. It is used to evaluate the extent of the disease and plan further steps. Patients receive the scan on an outpatient basis, meaning they do not need to stay in the hospital overnight.
Pricing and Packages
The cost for a standalone PSMA PET-CT scan may cost around $1,900. For a more thorough evaluation, a diagnostic package typically runs $2,500. This package includes the scan along with an oncologist consultation, detailed blood tests, and an MRI. These options provide a clear price structure without hidden fees for interpretation.
Specialist and Clinical Environment
Professor Rahim Horuz oversees the diagnostic workup for prostate cancer cases. He is a urological surgeon and an active member of the Turkish Urology Association and the Société Internationale d’Urologie (SIU). His participation helps ensure that imaging results are correctly integrated into a patient's overall health strategy.
Medipol Mega University Hospital is a major medical hub in Turkey. It was the first in the country to receive the JCI Academic Medical Center accreditation. The Nuclear Medicine department is equipped with specialized tools like SPECT-CT and PET-CT scanners to support precise cancer staging. If you would like to arrange this scan, you may leave a request on Bookimed to receive more information.

Thanks, Boris Ignatenko
Was under examination - PET-CT with Galium. Everything was organized professionally, clearly - transfer, settlement, visit to the clinic, examination. In the clinic - the attentive and friendly attitude of the staff. Special thanks to Maksut Atasov. He watered me and fed me and brought me to the toilet. Request: to determine in advance a specific deadline for the conclusion. This would make it possible to plan further actions more clearly. Thanks, Boris Ignatenko

"The only thing that I wanted to pay attention
Мі біли in the clinic Medipol in May 2019 on examination. The level of medical care of the Clinic, the medical staff, we really liked, we are satisfied. In the hotel, where mі lived, a very functional room, everything you need, well fed. Bіli problems with bed linen: in any way we could not get a full set. The transfer is organized remarkably, the only thing is that upon arrival it is difficult to expect more people, especially a sick person. Bookimed a separate THANKS for the information and the provision of travel support services. Accompanying Bilo at the highest level. After all, they felt the attention and support, because they were calm. The only thing that I wanted to pay attention. The trip was prepared for several months, I took air tickets, and I found out that I needed to prepay on the eve of the flight. In addition, mi bіli two days in total. And they came to the oncologist between the patients, for some reason they did not register. And the investigation, for which mi went, we were appointed on the day of departure, literally in front of the plane. We do not know where the failure occurred. But, on the whole, we are satisfied with the result of mi and plan to go there again.
P.S. I want to mention the quality of the translation of Babacan. Brilliantly!
