Facilities of Omid Cancer Center:
Treatment design department
Planning for the treatment design department is done in the manner of modern radiation therapy centers in the world in the form of treatment design teams, each team including oncology specialists, radiologists, medical physics experts to check the patient’s condition during the treatment, and medical physics experts, who are consulted by a specialist doctor related to The field of cancer patients also benefit.
The treatment team works to carry out treatment design processes based on the pre-written treatment protocols of the center, which are adapted from the protocols of advanced centers in the world, to treat patients. The process of designing the anticipated treatment starts from the beginning of the patient’s visit and the initial diagnostic procedures and continues until the end of the treatment period.
Due to the dependence of this process on accurate design and calculation software, one of the best software in the world with all the facilities required for installation in this center has been considered.
One of the most important steps in designing a patient’s treatment, which can have a significant impact on successful treatment, is to accurately determine the initial location of the lesion and simulate the treatment by means of it.
With the advancement of computing techniques, the use of more accurate diagnostic methods such as MRI and PET as a complementary marking method has become common in the world.
The use of MRI in the diagnosis and marking of tumor location can help to increase the accuracy of radiotherapy treatment by 40% due to the capabilities of this imaging method in identifying tumors.Also, the use of PET method images and its adaptation with CT scan or MRI images can be of great help in diagnosing the desired area for treatment as much as possible. The use of PET as a complementary method of marking the location of a cancerous lesion in the patient’s body is considered one of the requirements for performing advanced treatments.
Diagnostic procedures
At Omid Cancer Center, due to the existing expert staff, all diagnostic modalities including CT scan, MRI, digital radiology and ultrasound are provided in their most advanced state in this center. Also, the nuclear medicine department and PET scan by designing a complete set of radiopharmaceutical production in this complex have been foreseen as valuable diagnostic techniques in the facilities of the complex. A modern and advanced laboratory has been planned and is being equipped in Shahrak Salamat complex to perform relevant tests, which can complete the diagnostic cycle in this complex.
Private research center
Considering that research processes are one of the requirements of treatment.
This group has registered a private research center, which, in addition to recruiting assistants and academic staff, will take steps to obtain approvals and accredit the center based on the standards of major international institutions.
Chemotherapy department
The chemotherapy department has been designed and built with the ability to equip 16 chemotherapy beds in a suitable space with a relaxing design and adequate air conditioning, which will begin the treatment of patients in this department after the diagnosis of the medical team.
In this center, the use of a cold cap device to prevent hair loss in patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment has been done for the first time in the province.
Imaging section:
The imaging department includes CT scan, mammography, ultrasound, MIR, bone density, OPG.
Department of nuclear medicine:
Nuclear medicine is a branch of medicine that uses radiation to provide diagnostic information on the function of body organs or to treat them. The nuclear medicine department of each medical center is separate from other imaging departments. In nuclear medicine, the amount and type of radiopharmaceutical for imaging each body part is known.
Depending on the type of substance and target organ, radiopharmaceuticals may enter the patient’s body by inhalation, orally or intravenously. The nuclear medicine department has various devices including bone densitometry, SPECT, SPECT-CT, PET, PET-CT and PET-MR.
Department of radio medicine
Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive products that are used in medicine to diagnose and treat diseases. Radioisotopes are a subset of radiopharmaceuticals. These rays include alphaα, betaβ and gammaγ rays, each of which has a different wavelength and energy level. Based on this, different radioisotopes can be used as radiopharmaceuticals in various diagnostic and therapeutic processes.
