4D Mammography

What is 4D Mammography?

Advancements in imaging techniques are also remarkable. For example, while it was previously only possible to obtain a maximum of four images of the breast, today approximately 80 different images can be taken, allowing for a detailed examination of the breast tissue.
As known, mammography is a diagnostic method used to examine breast tissue using low-dose X-rays. It is used for detecting breast cancer and reducing deaths caused by breast cancer.
In recent years, there have been two significant developments in mammography:

1. Full-Field Digital Mammography (FFDM)

Digital mammography has certain advantages over conventional (classic) mammography. For instance, problems associated with film quality, processing issues, and transportation in conventional mammography are not encountered.
Many processes that require retakes in the conventional method can be performed without repetition in a digital environment, and the images can be enlarged. Digital images can be copied, transferred to computer environments or CDs, and archived. The examination time and radiation exposure are also less in digital mammography.

2. Digital Tomosynthesis

While images in normal mammography are obtained in two dimensions, tomosynthesis takes millimeter-thick slices of the breast and produces a three-dimensional image. This way, the internal structure of the breast tissue can be viewed more clearly, and if a tumor is present, its location can be determined in 3D. In normal mammography, normal tissues may overlap, hiding the cancer or creating false cancer-like images. However, this issue can be resolved with this method, as it allows for sectional evaluation of the breast tissue.
If a mass detected by mammography is present, ultrasound becomes a complementary method for investigating the internal structure of the mass, or if an increase in suspicious density is seen on mammography or a mass is detected during a physical exam. Therefore, performing ultrasound examination simultaneously with mammography increases the reliability of the examination.

Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS)

Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS), performed at only a few centers in Turkey, is a diagnostic method with low complication risks. What sets it apart is its ability to simultaneously diagnose and stage lung cancer in a single session, minimizing time loss for the patient.

Healthy Teeth with Three-Dimensional Oral Scanning Technology

Technological advancements are providing significant opportunities in dental care, as in other fields. Dr. Arzu Tekkeli, Clinical Coordinator of the Oral and Dental Health Department at Anadolu Sağlık Merkezi, explains that "three-dimensional oral scanning allows for the internal structure of the mouth to be scanned and images to be transferred to a computer, enabling the production and placement of a new tooth with almost zero error on the same day. Three-dimensional oral scanning, achieved through the digital integration of three different devices, quickly resolves issues such as missing teeth, tooth alignment, broken teeth, fillings, or crowns in just one day. This means patients do not have to make multiple visits to the clinic for treatment. The same method also provides quick and long-lasting results for many other dental problems." Dr. Arzu Tekkeli provided important insights on the topic.

StemWave

Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT) is based on the principle of using high-energy sound waves (mechanoacoustic) generated by a special liquid and electrical arc system, which are directly delivered to the damaged, painful area via a transducer (mechanotransduction). The successive high-energy sound waves stimulate the healing process at the cellular, tissue, and systemic levels through natural effects in the treated area.

Sialendoscopy Method (Salivary Gland Endoscopy)

Sialendoscopy is an endoscopic procedure that involves visualizing the salivary gland duct and diagnosing and treating salivary gland diseases. The method first diagnoses the pathology within the duct, and then endoscopic treatment is performed either in the same session or in a subsequent session.
