About the clinic
Scintigraphy at Istanbul Okan University Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, checks the function and structure of the thyroid gland. This nuclear medicine scan typically runs around $250. The procedure is performed in a dedicated Nuclear Medicine department to identify thyroid nodules or inflammation.
Exam Details and Results
This diagnostic test uses a small amount of radioactive tracer to create images of the thyroid. This method, known as thyroid scintigraphy, helps doctors see how well the gland absorbs iodine. A patient receives a scan that identifies "hot" or "cold" nodules within the tissue. The medical team reviews these images to determine the cause of hyperthyroidism or other thyroid issues.
Specialist and Clinic Details

Istanbul Okan University Hospital maintains a focused Nuclear Medicine department to handle these specific scans. The facility also provides a free second medical opinion service. Leading specialists can review existing patient documents as part of this service.
The price of approximately $250 applies specifically to the thyroid scintigraphy scan. There are no hidden fees for the imaging itself. The clinic offers the procedure in an outpatient setting, and patients can request a consultation to learn more about the process.

Verified review.
I took my mother (Halimo Ileye) to see Dr Baris at Okan's rheumatology clinic as was arranged by you. He only saw her for 25 mins then asked her to come back the following day for blood tests. He saw my mother for another 25 mins on the next day briefly explaining her blood tests' results, then prescribed some osteoarthritis drugs for her and recommended some physical therapy tips and told us that we would get the full report in a day or two. However, when we received the report on Thursday, I asked his secretary to go back to him and ask him to send us a full report and not just her laboratory results and to include all the medications he prescribed for my mother, their commercial names, frequency and length of use, as this was verbally explained during the session and not in writing
