- MRI of one area. Focused imaging for around $600–$700 to view internal structures.
- PET-MRI. Advanced combined imaging that may cost around $1,800–$3,500.
- Molecular analysis and liquid biopsy. Tests to identify the genetic profile of the tumor for targeted therapy.
- CT, PET-CT, and SPECT-CT. Detailed scans used to locate metastases and monitor treatment progress.
Treatment methods
Wiener Privatklinik uses a tumor board to review every case. This board includes experts in surgery, radiation, and medical oncology to create a personalized plan. The clinic uses the Amethyst center for on-site radiotherapy and offers modern surgical techniques.
- Multidisciplinary cancer therapy. This combines surgery, radiotherapy, and drug treatments for digestive organ cancers.
- Minimally invasive and robotic surgery. Robotic-assisted procedures allow for precise tumor removal and shorten the recovery time.
- Radiotherapy. Targeted radiation treatments are performed at the on-site Amethyst center.
- Immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Systemic drug therapies are used to treat cancer cells throughout the body.
- Heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). This involves delivering heated chemotherapy drugs directly into the abdomen to treat tumor spread.
International patients at the clinic receive support through VIP transfers, interpreter services, and help with hotel bookings. This helps patients focus on their recovery in a comfortable environment. To learn more about your options at Wiener Privatklinik, you may request a consultation through Bookimed.
