When presented with a cancer diagnosis, it is essential to feel that you are in the best possible hands and receiving the most up-to-date treatments. As a country at the forefront of medical and technological advancement, Israeli hi-tech companies place a huge emphasis on the importance of using these resources to save lives. This means that the major hospitals in Israel have been able to craft speciality oncology departments with cutting-edge technology, offering the very latest in cancer treatments.
Oncologists throughout Israel are actively engaged in ongoing research trials to ensure that the advancements which have taken place in recent years can continue to be built upon.
Amongst the innovations in cancer treatment are targeted therapies, biological medicines which offer better results with fewer harsh side-effects. These treatments are now offered at most Israeli cancer centers, alongside the latest versions of other established cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery.
Another important area of cancer care in Israel is adjunct care, also known as supportive therapies. This can include medications to help with uncomfortable side-effects from cancer treatment, and pain-control medication, nutritional care, support from a social worker and so on. Your medical and paramedical team will be working together to make sure your cancer treatment is made as easy as possible.
