What is Immunology? What Does the Immunology Unit Cover?
The immune system protects the human body through a coordinated response developed by the relevant organs, tissues, and cells against external and internal stimuli. Immunology deals with immune system diseases and cases related to protective immunity. The services offered by the Immunology Department include the following:
Diagnostic Services
Immune system diseases may not always present with clear symptoms, and the diagnostic process can be complex. Immunology experts conduct necessary tests through meticulous evaluation to determine the cause of the disease. Supportive studies, such as blood tests, immunophenotypic analyses, tissue typing tests, antibody profiles, allergy tests, and other laboratory methods, are carried out for accurate diagnosis.
Treatment of Immune System Diseases
After a diagnosis is made, our experienced Immunology specialists provide personalized treatment plans for our patients. The treatment of immune system diseases may vary according to each patient's condition. The goal is to alleviate symptoms and prevent the progression of the disease through drug treatments, immunoglobulin therapy, and other methods.
Immune Strengthening and Preventive Care
Preventive care services to strengthen the immune system and protect against diseases are also provided by various departments of our institution. Individuals with weakened immune systems are supported in boosting their immunity through guidance on proper nutrition, exercise, and sleep habits. Additionally, vaccines and preventive measures are recommended to individuals prone to immune system diseases, helping reduce the risk of infections.
Our goal is to support individuals in leading a healthy life with an effective and reliable treatment plan tailored to each patient's individual needs. Prioritizing quality in healthcare, we aim to provide the best care in the diagnosis and treatment of immune system diseases, ensuring the well-being of our patients.
