What are the options for brain tumor treatment in Israel?
Israel is one of the leading countries for brain tumor care. Depending on your diagnosis, treatment may include advanced options like stereotactic radiosurgery (e.g., Gamma Knife), chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or surgery when needed. Clinics like TAMC in Tel Aviv offer highly personalized care, with experts from different specialties working together to find the most effective — and least invasive — treatment path for each patient.
Can brain metastases be treated without surgery?
Yes, and often very effectively. Many brain metastases can now be treated without a scalpel. Technologies like Gamma Knife or LINAC allow doctors to precisely target tumors using focused radiation beams — usually over 1–5 sessions. If you’re considering non-surgical treatment, a consultation with a neuro-oncologist like Dr. Bittan can help assess your case.
What is radiosurgery and where is it performed in Israel?
Despite the name, there’s no surgery involved. Radiosurgery is a non-invasive treatment that uses pinpoint radiation to target brain or spine tumors. In Israel, this therapy is offered at several major centers, including TAMC in Tel Aviv. Dr. Bittan has years of experience in this field and tailors each treatment to the patient’s unique condition.
Where can I receive stereotactic radiosurgery in Tel Aviv?
You have several excellent options. Tel Aviv is home to top-tier centers like Ichilov (Sourasky) and TAMC, both offering advanced stereotactic radiosurgery. This method delivers highly focused treatment to tumors without affecting surrounding tissue. Dr. Bittan is one of the local experts in this approach, treating brain and spinal tumors with precision.
What does a neuro-oncologist do?
A neuro-oncologist wears more than one hat. They’re experts in both neurology and oncology — which means they understand how tumors affect the nervous system, and how best to treat them. Dr. Bittan brings these two worlds together in her practice, offering thoughtful, balanced care to people facing complex brain or spine conditions.
Who is a leading expert for glioblastoma treatment in Israel?
Glioblastoma is one of the most challenging brain tumors — and experience matters. Dr. Alexandra Bittan is widely recognized for her work in treating glioblastoma patients using a combination of stereotactic radiotherapy, personalized drug regimens, and collaborative planning with neurosurgeons. Her patients appreciate not just her skill, but her honest, compassionate approach.
How are spinal tumors treated in Israel?
Spinal tumors require a team approach. In Israel, patients are usually treated by a group of specialists — including neuro-oncologists, radiation experts, and spine surgeons. Thanks to technologies like stereotactic radiotherapy, many spinal tumors can be treated with high precision, and often without surgery.
How to choose the right oncologist in Israel?
Not every oncologist is right for every patient. That’s why it’s a good idea to first send over your medical records. At TAMC, they’ll help match you with the right expert for your condition. If your case involves brain or spinal tumors, Dr. Beitan is one of the top choices in Tel Aviv — she works with both local and international patients and believes in clear, honest guidance.
Can I schedule an online consultation for neuro-oncology?
Absolutely — and it’s easier than you might think. Dr. Bittan offers remote consultations for patients who can’t travel. You’ll be asked to share your scans and reports, and she’ll personally review your case and walk you through your treatment options. It’s a convenient way to get expert input without leaving home.
