CyberKnife in Turkey: Your Travel Plan

Day 1: Arrival in Turkey
  • Upon arrival, you should ensure you have all necessary documents, including medical records and radiological images on a CD. These are crucial for initial consultations and planning your CyberKnife treatment.
  • Contact the clinic to confirm your arrival and arrange transportation from the airport to your accommodation. Some clinics offer complimentary transfer services.
  • Rest and acclimatize to the new environment. You need to be well-rested for upcoming consultations and procedures.
Day 2: Initial Consultations and Pre-Treatment Evaluations
  • Attend a consultation with oncology and radiation-oncology specialists. They will review your medical history, current condition, and discuss the treatment plan.
  • Undergo necessary diagnostic tests such as MRI, PET CT, or planning tomography. These tests help in precise treatment planning and ensure accurate targeting of the tumor.
  • If required, fiducial markers may be placed for tumors in organs like the lung or prostate. Interventional Radiology usually performs this procedure, which is crucial for accurate treatment delivery.
  • Discuss any potential side effects and post-treatment care with your doctor. Understanding the process will help you manage expectations and recovery.
Day 3-5: CyberKnife Treatment Sessions
  • Begin your CyberKnife treatment, which can range from 1-5 sessions depending on your specific case. Each session lasts between 20 minutes to 1 hour.
  • During the treatment, a thermoplastic mask may be used for brain conditions to keep the head still, ensuring precise targeting.
  • Follow any specific instructions given by your medical team, such as breath-holding techniques, if your treatment involves organs that move with breathing.
  • After each session, you can usually return to your accommodation as the treatment is outpatient and non-invasive.
Day 6: Post-Treatment Follow-Up
  • Attend a follow-up appointment to assess the immediate effects of the treatment and discuss the next steps in your recovery or additional treatments if necessary.
  • Your doctor may schedule further imaging tests to monitor the treatment's effectiveness over time. This could include follow-up MRIs or PET CT scans at intervals of 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year.
  • Discuss any side effects you experience, such as mild fatigue or nausea, with your doctor. They can provide strategies to manage these symptoms effectively.
Day 7: Preparing for Departure
  • Ensure you have all follow-up instructions and contact details for your medical team in case you need to reach out once you return home.
  • Arrange transportation to the airport, which may be provided by the clinic as part of their services.
  • Reflect on your experience and ensure you have a clear understanding of the follow-up care required to maximize the benefits of the CyberKnife treatment.
Returning Home
  • Once home, adhere to the follow-up schedule provided by your medical team. Regular monitoring is crucial to assess the long-term success of the treatment.
  • Maintain open communication with your healthcare providers in Turkey if you have any concerns or need further guidance.
  • Continue any prescribed medications or therapies as advised by your doctors to support your recovery and overall health.

The consultation with the doctor was easy and instilled confidence and calm
Everything is fine. There was a slight delay in the transfer upon arrival at the airport. Then they arrived promptly, the drivers were polite, the cars were clean. The hotel is a little far away, but nice, spacious room, clean. There were not enough slippers in the hotel, otherwise everything was fine, the staff was helpful. I underwent PET CT diagnostics with gallium 68, the examination was carried out perfectly. Special thanks to the coordinators of Bookimed and the clinic, and the translator. The consultation with the doctor was easy and instilled confidence and calm. It would be nice to get a translation of the conclusion in Russian or English right away.
