⚛️ NUCLEAR MEDICINE IN TURKEY
Advanced Diagnostic and Therapeutic Solutions for International Patients
Nuclear medicine combines science, technology, and precision to diagnose and treat diseases using safe radioactive materials called radiotracers.
At Medicine Park International, we connect patients from all around the world with leading nuclear medicine centers in Turkey, offering state-of-the-art imaging and targeted therapies with rapid access and affordable prices.
💡 What Is Nuclear Medicine?
Nuclear medicine is a branch of modern medicine that uses small amounts of radioactive substances to visualize how organs and tissues work — not just what they look like.
It is used both for diagnostic imaging and targeted treatment of various diseases, especially cancer, thyroid disorders, and neurological or cardiac conditions.
Unlike regular radiology, which shows structure, nuclear medicine reveals function and metabolism, making it crucial for early detection and personalized therapy.
🧬 DIAGNOSTIC APPLICATIONS
Nuclear medicine plays a vital role in early and accurate diagnosis.
In Turkey, international patients benefit from the latest-generation imaging systems, including PET-CT and SPECT-CT, which provide detailed 3D images of internal organs.
Diagnostic procedures available:
PET-CT Scan — for cancer detection, staging, and therapy evaluation
SPECT-CT Scan — for heart, bone, and thyroid imaging
Bone scintigraphy — for metastasis detection
Renal and pulmonary scans — for organ function studies
Thyroid scintigraphy — for nodules and metabolic disorders

⚕️ THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS
Nuclear medicine also provides targeted internal radiotherapy, where a radiopharmaceutical travels directly to the affected area — destroying cancer cells while sparing healthy tissues.
Main therapeutic options available:
Radioiodine (I-131) Therapy – for thyroid cancer and hyperthyroidism
PRRT (Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy) – for neuroendocrine tumors
PSMA Therapy – for metastatic prostate cancer
Radioembolization (Y-90) – for liver tumors
Pain palliation with radionuclides – for bone metastases
These treatments are performed under strict medical supervision in certified nuclear medicine departments.
