Treatment of brain tumors in Israel - innovative methods

Depending on the nature and extent, treatment of brain tumors in Israel is carried out both by traditional methods, and using innovative technologies and authoring techniques.

To traditional methods can be attributed surgical intervention to remove neoplasm, the use of chemotherapy and radiation exposure.

Treatment of brain tumors in Israel by surgery is called "craniotomy", when removal of the tumor under general anesthesia is carried out. True, modern methods have been developed, oncology can be treated under local anesthesia. In this case, the surgeon has the opportunity to ask the patient to make certain limb movements to assess their actions and to determine the risk of damage to the brain and nerve trunks.

Diagnosis in the treatment of oncology, methods

Treatment of oncology in Israel takes place in several stages:

• Visual examination of the patient;
• Study documentation and analyzes conducted before entering the Israel clinic;
• Necessary diagnostic studies of the patient;
• Choice of method of treatment;
• Treatment of oncology;
• Rehabilitation of the patient.

Diagnosis in the treatment of oncology in Israel is given paramount importance. In addition to detailed laboratory analysis of urine and blood with mandatory testing for oncomarkers, the patient is consulted by a neurosurgeon, therapist, ophthalmologist and oncologist.

Treatment of brain tumors in Israel requires such a study as magnetic resonance imaging, with which you can obtain a series of three-dimensional images of damaged areas of the brain tumor at any angle, which gives a complete picture of the location of the tumor.

Diagnosis of malignant neoplasms includes such methods as X-ray examination, angiography using contrast medium, myelography of the spinal cord. For the treatment of oncology in Israel, the technique of intraoperative ultrasound is widely used, which allows the surgeon to see the boundaries of the tumor directly on the operation and perform its excision more accurately.

What are the ways of oncology treatment?

Treatment of brain tumors in Israel, in addition to traditional, is conducted and unfamiliar methods. One of them is the method of stereotactic radiosurgery - a method that produced a real sensation in the treatment of malignant tumors. The method makes it possible to remove the tumor with a precisely directed beam of radiation. In Israel, for this purpose, a "gamma knife" is used and its mobile version is a "cyber knife". The operation is painless.

To use chemotherapy in Israel, a new line of drugs has been developed, which can be applied both before and after surgery.

Successfully used in Israeli clinics modern gene preparations, which are introduced into damaged cells and program them for self-destruction.

An additional method of treating brain tumors is recognized in Israel for immunotherapy, the use of which in the rehabilitation period helps the patient to fully recover and go home under the supervision of specialists.
