Acıbadem Healthcare Group: A Leader in Comprehensive Breast Cancer Care

Acıbadem Healthcare Group has been a trusted name in healthcare for decades, renowned for its cutting-edge technologies and patient-centered care. In the field of breast health, the Group took a major step forward in December 2016 by establishing the Senology Research Institute in collaboration with Acıbadem University. This institute was created to advance the study of senology, the science of breast health, and to explore new diagnostic and treatment methods through collaborative, multidisciplinary research.


The rapid development of technologies, combined with the application of multidisciplinary approaches, has led to more successful outcomes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, particularly in breast cancer. The Senology Research Institute exemplifies this approach, bringing together physicians and researchers from various specialties to focus on innovations in breast cancer care.

Located within Acıbadem Maslak Hospital in Istanbul, Acıbadem Senology Institute is a pioneering center dedicated to breast health and cancer treatment. Under the leadership of Professor Cihan Uras, M.D. the institute combines modern technology with a multidisciplinary team of experts in oncology, radiology, surgery, pathology ans aesthetics...
