About the clinic
A PET/CT (Positron Emission Tomography / Computed Tomography) scan identifies cancer spread and monitors how tumors respond to treatment. This diagnostic is available at Medipol Mega University Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. The price for this imaging typically runs around $700 and includes the scan in a JCI-accredited facility.
What the Scan Detects
The procedure combines PET and CT technology to create detailed anatomical and metabolic images. It helps physicians find metastases and determine the stage of various cancers. Doctors also use this scan to evaluate epilepsy and track the progress of ongoing treatments. Patients receive imaging results that show metabolic activity in tissues throughout the body.
Technology and Setting
The hospital has a dedicated Nuclear Medicine Department with its own PET/CT scanner. All imaging happens on-site, so patients do not need to travel to external laboratories. The procedure is an outpatient service, allowing patients to leave the clinic the same day. For specific cases like prostate cancer evaluation, the clinic also offers PSMA PET-CT variants.
Expert Medical Review
Prof. Dr. Ahmet Bilici oversees oncological evaluations at the hospital. He is a Professor of Clinical Oncology with over 25 years of experience in the field. His expertise helps in interpreting imaging results within a broader cancer diagnostic workup. This often includes combining PET/CT data with MRI results and pathology reviews.
Clinic Accreditations

I would like to thank Bukimed Service and Medipol Clinic, Istanbul, Turkey. These are true professionals, thank you that Ukrainians also have the opportunity to receive decent medical care and hope for the best. For those who have chosen treatment for themselves in Istanbul, we can say that you will not regret it. High-level support, organization, doctors and equipment! And the prices are pleasantly surprised, they are 3-4 times lower than the prices in Israel and Europe (before that they were treated in and received further consultations in one of the Israeli clinics), the only thing you want to warn is that if you need a translator, then don't expect him to be around you 24/7. He is accompanying several patients at the same time, and also in Turkey a low percentage of English-speaking and Russian-speaking doctors and citizens. Many thanks to Catherine for her support and support! Thank you!

Good afternoon. In October 2019, my dad (who needed to undergo a Pat-CT examination with gallium 68 (psma) visited the Medipol University Hospital. The impressions are different from the coordinators and the hospital itself. Everything is very coordinated and thought out. The coordinators "led" us starting from Ukraine and ending with serving in Ukraine. So I really want to thank Anna, Olga, Zulfiya, Elmira, Babadzhan and others for their attention and support. At the hospital we underwent a qualified examination, consultation (though we had to pass additional tests, which were are necessary for the doctor) and the recommendations of the necessary doctors (the translator Elmira was always there, so we understood everything). Everything was at a very high level. The next day, after the examination, we received all the documents in Turkish and within a week they sent me translations in English and Russian languages by e-mail. After 3 months, my dad and I plan to fly for re-examination. I really hope that this time the team of coordinators will also work 100%! Guys! Thank you very much!

Found this clinic with the help of booked, they very quickly organized a flight and a visit to the doctor.
