Stay strong, stay informed, and never underestimate the power of cutting-edge treatments and a solid support system.
The surgeon and staff were fantastic. I'm in the early phase of healing now; while I’m still slightly tired and my mobility is a bit reduced, I can feel myself getting stronger daily. It’s a steady process. Looking back, my only personal regret is that I wish I knew more Turkish to connect with people directly. That said, the translation provided was great and everything was communicated clearly. The whole process was handled with care.
Dorian was excellent. All the staff were great and made the experience so much more pleasant.
Dr Akdimar is the very best physician I have ever seen. He was patient and caring. He helped me deal with a complicated and stressful process. I would recommend both Dr Akdimar and Memorial to my friends and family.
It was a great help to have somebody with me during the day of the tests, sorting my papers and dealing with translation
Having made an initial enquiry on line, I was impressed by the follow up and treatment proposals and costs
I did some research and determined that I needed to get the very best medical attention
It was a great help to have somebody with me during the day of the tests, sorting my papers and dealing with translation. Absolutely invaluable
Everything was explained to me in detail
My only comments are that it would have been good to have been informed about the number of nights stay in the hospital
I expected an overnight stay after the procedure
In fact for good reasons it was a total of three nights

Our Radiofrequency ablation Techniques: What Suits You Best?
When considering Radiofrequency ablation, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:
Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS)
This non-invasive procedure uses focused ultrasound waves under MRI guidance to treat specific medical conditions without incisions.
Pros: Offers precise targeting of tissues with minimal damage to surrounding areas. Reduces recovery time significantly compared to invasive surgeries. No radiation exposure involved.
Cons: Not suitable for all types of tumors or conditions. Limited accessibility due to specialized equipment requirements.
Effectiveness: Success rates of 70% to 90% in reducing tumor size or alleviating symptoms.
Duration: The procedure typically takes 3 to 4 hours.
Recovery: Recovery time is usually 24 to 48 hours.
Best for: Ideal for treating uterine fibroids, essential tremors, and pain associated with bone metastases.
Prices: Cost of Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS) in test from $10,000
Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping
Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping is a minimally invasive procedure using radio waves to target and treat arrhythmias with precision.
Pros: Offers precise targeting of cardiac arrhythmias with 3D imaging, reducing recurrence rates by up to 80%. Minimizes damage to surrounding tissues compared to other methods.
Cons: Requires specialized equipment and expertise, which may not be available in all medical facilities. Potential for longer procedure times compared to simpler techniques.
Effectiveness: Success rate of 70-90% in treating atrial fibrillation.
Duration: 2-4 hours.
Recovery: 1-2 weeks.
Best for: Treating complex cardiac arrhythmias in patients not responding to medication. Suitable for patients with atrial fibrillation.
Prices: Cost of Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping in test from $6,000
Radiofrequency Ablation of the Liver
Radiofrequency ablation of the liver is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to destroy cancer cells in the liver.
Pros: Offers a high success rate of 85% in small tumors. Less invasive than surgical resection, leading to a quicker recovery and fewer complications.
Cons: Limited to tumors smaller than 5 cm. May require multiple sessions for complete treatment and potentially less effective for larger tumors.
Effectiveness: 85% success rate for tumors smaller than 3 cm.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: 1-2 days
Best for: Tumors smaller than 5 cm in diameter. Particularly effective for patients with liver cancer not suitable for surgery.
Prices: Cost of Radiofrequency ablation of the liver in test from $3,500
