Radioactive Substances Method Does Magic in a Successful Tumor Excision at IMC

The international medical Center played another starring role in a new medical success episode by performing a breast tumor excision operation for a 49-year-old patient using Radiation Substances, the latest tumor removal method only available at IMC.

Diagnostics, radiation and medical analysis confirmed the patient had a malignant tumor on the left side of the breast area. After discussions with the patient, the decision was taken to proceed with operation using Radioactive Substances to locate and remove the tumor alongside the Lymph Gland to prevent more spread of the cancerous cells.

Hand in hand, medical teams from Radiology and Surgery teamed up to carry out the operation. Dr. Nouf Abdulla Chairman and Consultant, Medical Imaging expertly injected the Radioactive pharmaceutical substances into the tumor, whereas Dr. Timor Alalshee, Consultant, Surgical Oncology & Breast Oncology meticulously performed the removal process of the entire tumor. The post-operation sample report confirmed that it went successful with no sign of any tumor in the patient’s body. She is now safe and recovering from surgery.

Tumor removal by Wire is considered the common traditional method practiced at hospitals and medical centers in the present time. It is basically to remove tumors by measuring their size and location, however, this method may cause collateral damage by removing the cells surrounding the tumor.

On the contrary, the latest Radiation tumor excision practice at IMC includes injecting the tumor with Radioactive Substances to locate its actual size with extreme accuracy, ensuring precise tumor excision while keeping the surrounding cells safe and intact. This helps maintain the breast’s shape after the operation and preserve its natural look.

Patients can rest assured that aside from the incision wound, this incredible methodology perfectly targets the tumor and does not cause any change in the breast’s overall appearance.
