At Medipol Bahçelievler Hospital, Proton Therapy is performed using specialized proton beam technology and comprehensive pre-treatment imaging and radiation oncology assessment. Established in 2022, this JCI accredited hospital in Istanbul, Turkey has 441 beds and offers advanced radiation oncology and multidisciplinary cancer-care services.

Proton Therapy may be considered for selected tumors where reducing radiation exposure to nearby critical structures is clinically important. It can be used in the treatment of certain pediatric cancers and tumors involving the brain, spine, head and neck, and other areas depending on the diagnosis. Before treatment, imaging is used to precisely define the tumor and surrounding organs, allowing the radiation oncology team to develop an individualized proton treatment plan.
