I would like to say a few words about this hospital and even more about Doctor Rozanghel Lattanzio, one of the most accessible and professional doctors I have ever known. He saved my vision by curing vasculopathy and warning all possible consequences. I thank you and I will never stop doing it, because the hospitability and love that you put into your work is very rare.
For those who have diseases of the retina, maculopathy, etc., trust this angel!

Scoliosis
Hello, I have serious scoliosis and some other health problems. Scoliosis should be operated on and preferably as soon as possible since it will only get worse … In Ukraine, they refused to operate because there was a very big risk. Poland also refused. After a long search, the clinic Galeazzi was finally told to come for a detailed consultation. The consultation was successful, everything seems to be positive, I am waiting for a final decision from them!

Cancer Treatment in italy
Why do international patients choose Italy for cancer treatment?
According to Medical Tourism Magazine 2021, Italy is ranked 5th among European medical tourism destinations. This is due to advances in complex procedures, including oncology.
Patients from all over the world are restored to health by relying on the outstanding medical practice and state-of-the-art technologies for cancer treatment in Italy. Modern diagnostic methods and innovative therapeutic approaches attract those seeking effective treatment methods to this country.
Innovative Methods for Cancer Diagnostics in Italy
Advanced methods for cancer diagnostics in Italy are a key factor in the early detection and accurate characterization of tumors. Here are some diagnostic innovations that are used in Italian clinics:
Molecular and genetic diagnostics allow for accurate classification and staging of the disease. This is an important factor in the development of personalized cancer treatment in Italy.
Biopsy using the latest technology and robotic systems. It allows to take a high-quality tissue sample for laboratory analysis with minimal impact on healthy tissue.
Radiomolecular diagnostics. Radiomarkers are introduced into the patient’s body, the accumulation of which is monitored using special equipment, a positron emission tomograph (PET). The oncologist receives detailed data to detect and evaluate cancer changes. This is especially important when monitoring the effectiveness of cancer treatment in Italy at late stages.
How to identify a predisposition or diagnose cancer at an early stage?
Doctors in Italy have developed special check-up programs, which are a comprehensive examination for a specific group of diseases. Check-up allows doctors to detect a disease at a stage when it is still amenable to effective treatment.
Why is science and medicine an important symbiosis?
Scientific research directly affects the level of medicine, leading to the emergence of advanced methods of diagnosis and treatment of oncology in Italy. Researchers play a key role in ensuring a high standard of healthcare. Regardless of whether a cancer treatment facility in Italy is an institute or a clinic, the medical staff often includes professors, doctors of medical sciences, and other experts. Italy is actively involved in translational research and clinical trials, which are aimed at translating scientific discoveries into innovative treatment methods. All this significantly expands the arsenal of tools for cancer treatment in Italy.
That is why all oncopathologies are treated equally successfully here, such as prostate cancer, osteosarcoma of bones and joints, brain tumors, and others.
What cancer treatment methods are available to foreign patients in Italy?
Surgery for malignant tumors
Equipment and surgical methods that are used to treat cancer in Italy:
Robotic Da Vinci Surgical System. Equipment of this level provides high precision and maneuverability when removing tumors. Da Vinci operations are considered minimally invasive, which allows patients to more easily undergo rehabilitation after surgical cancer treatment in Italy.
Laser surgery. The technology ensures precise removal of tumors and promotes faster patient recovery after surgery.
Bone marrow transplantation. The procedure is used to treat blood cancer (leukemia).
Smart Instruments by DePuy Synthes are intelligent surgical instruments equipped with sensors and instant feedback technologies. This increases the accuracy and control of the surgeon’s work during surgery.
Virtual reality technologies such as Touch Surgery allow surgeons to practice before real operations. This improves their skills and increases the level of training, which is important in complex cases of cancer treatment in Italy.
Anti-cancer therapy
It is widely used for conservative treatment of oncology in Italy. It is aimed at activating the patient’s immune system. It allows to strengthen the body’s natural defense mechanisms and increase the effectiveness of therapy.
Use of high-quality modern drugs. It reduces the number of side effects and ensures maximum effectiveness of cancer treatment in Italy.
Targeted therapy. It is aimed at specific molecules in the body responsible for the development of the disease. The therapy allows for more precise action on atypical cells, minimizing the impact on healthy ones.
Hormonal therapy. For hormone-sensitive tumors, specialists prescribe drugs that block the growth of cancer cells.
Gamma knife. A radiosurgery method that does not require open access to the surgical field. It effects the tumor with focused high-intensity gamma rays. It is used to treat tumors of the brain and spinal cord.
Modern radiation therapy. For example, in 2004, the first tomotherapy in Europe for cancer treatment was installed in the San Raffaele Clinic (Ospedale San Raffaele) in Italy. The device combines a linear accelerator and a computer tomograph. As well, proton therapy is one of the safest methods of radiotherapy used for the treatment of oncology in Italy.
What is the cost of cancer treatment in Italy?
The cost of cancer treatment in Italy may vary depending on the institution chosen and the individual characteristics of the medical case.
According to patient reviews, Italy provides foreigners with access to the latest techniques, innovative equipment, and high-quality personalized treatment. However, the prices for cancer treatment in Italy may be higher compared to some other countries.
Approximate prices for cancer treatment in Italy:
PET-CT with an oncologist consultation is about €1,300;
