NanoKnife in Israel typically costs from $18,500 to $31,500 depending on tumor complexity and the chosen medical facility. Prices vary based on the specific organ being treated, the number of electrodes used, and the length of hospitalization required. Patients save around 38% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $40,000 on average. Standard inclusions in Israeli hospitals usually cover the ablation procedure, anesthesia, pre-operative blood tests, and specialized imaging like PET PSMA CT scans.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a multidisciplinary center like Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov) offers significant value for oncology patients. While NanoKnife packages there start approximately around $32,050, patients gain access to a 90% oncology success rate. Ichilov is accredited by JCI and ranked among the World's Best Hospitals by Newsweek. This high volume of 34,000 annual operations ensures deep surgical expertise. For complex cases, consults with specialists like Professor Jack Baniel provide access to world-class urological research. Private facilities like Assuta, costing approximately $45,000, prioritize shorter wait times and personalized service in a JCI-accredited environment.
