Gamma Knife

Koru Hospital has established itself as a premier oncology center in Turkey, distinguished by its exceptional resources and expertise. The hospital boasts specialized oncological surgery teams, a cutting-edge medical oncology department, and a state-of-the-art device park equipped with the world's most advanced technology. Additionally, the radiation oncology department, a collaborative effort with 25 years of experience in Oncology, further enhances Koru Hospital's capabilities in the comprehensive treatment of cancer.

One of the hallmarks of Koru Hospital's advanced medical services is its proficiency in highly successful brain treatments without the need for invasive procedures. This is achieved through the utilization of the Gamma-Knife device, a revolutionary technology that enables the precise removal of millimetric masses, resembling the precision of a scalpel. Unlike conventional radiosurgery devices such as Cyberknife and Truebeam, the Gamma-Knife device stands out for its ability to generate a sharper beam. This unique characteristic contributes to a significant reduction in the radiation dose to healthy brain tissue—up to one-sixth of the dose used by other technologies.

The superior design of the Gamma-Knife, characterized by a minimal number of moving parts specifically engineered for the treatment of brain lesions, ensures not only enhanced precision but also the preservation of intellectual activities critical in the treatment of brain lesions. This innovative approach minimizes the potential harm to healthy brain functions during the course of treatment.

Moreover, the Gamma Knife at Koru Hospital finds application in a diverse range of neurosurgical interventions. From treating pantocerebellar corner tumors and metastases to addressing small or medium meningiomas and alleviating trigeminal neuralgia movement disorders, the versatility of the Gamma Knife makes it an invaluable tool in the realm of functional neurosurgery. The hospital's commitment to providing comprehensive care extends to functional neurosurgery, encompassing psychosurgery as part of its advanced treatment options.

In summary, Koru Hospital's oncology services, fortified by its specialized teams, advanced technologies, and collaborative experiences, position it as a leader in the field. The Gamma-Knife device stands as a testament to the hospital's commitment to innovation, precision, and the holistic well-being of patients undergoing complex brain treatments.
