With a commitment to a patient-centered approach, at the Assuta Oncology Center,
everything revolves around the patient – in preparation for, during, and after medical procedures.

The center features a multidisciplinary consulting approach (with a team called the Tumor Board),
which integrates expertise from physicians across oncology, surgery, plastic surgery, radiology, and other specialties.

This broad-range team makes medical decisions and is responsible for the patient’s complete
continuum of care under one roof,from diagnosis, to surgery, treatment, and recovery.

Services provided by the Oncology Center

1. Oncological and Surgical Consultation Services: Specialty clinics featuring renowned experts work in concert with the oncology team to provide medical advice and treatment.
   
   
2. The Chemotherapy Center: The Chemotherapy Center delivers treatment in its day hospital and provides oncology consultation and outpatient treatments for all medical indications and during all disease stages.
   
   
3. Radiotherapy Institute: As a radiation oncology center, the institute implements a complete array of advanced treatment protocols such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
   to minimize radiation damage to vital organs and healthy tissues,
   image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) for targeted real-time patient treatment despite patient movement, and daily monitoring so that radiation treatment achieves maximum accuracy directed to the tumor area.
   
   The institute also performs stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)
   using the world’s most advanced treatment techniques.

   and, in some cases, replaces surgery.
