Glioblastoma is an oncological tumor of the brain that develops from atypical changes in glial cells. The tumor is extremely aggressive and, unfortunately, no conscientious doctor can promise its complete cure. The best way to avoid the condition is systematic preventive examinations. By detecting the tumor at an early stage, the patient increases the chances of recovery. Treatment of glioblastoma in South Korea is carried out by experienced oncologists, neurosurgeons, specialists in nuclear medicine, chemotherapy physicians, and other specialized doctors. It is aimed at relieving distressing symptoms, stopping tumor progression and growth, and preventing complications of brain cancer.

Diagnosis of glioblastoma in South Korea is not difficult: city clinics are equipped with innovative technology and devices for effective determination of the form, stage, and nature of the disease.

Differentiation of the tumor is performed by means of the following procedures:

  • consultation with a neurologist and ophthalmologist with physical examinations,
  • laboratory blood tests,
  • plain X-ray of the skull,
  • CT of the head and neck with contrast,
  • MRI of the brain and adjacent structures,
  • MR angiography of feeding arteries,
  • magnetic electroencephalography,
  • echoencephalography and rheoencephalography,
  • ophthalmoscopy,
  • threshold audiometry,
  • stereotactic biopsy.

The following methods are used for treatment:

  • open craniotomy with tumor resection under robotic control,
  • removal of the brain tumor with gamma knife or cyber knife (noninvasive),
  • therapy with monoclonal antibodies,
  • bio- and immunotherapy,
  • local and general radiation therapy,
  • chemotherapy,
  • ultrasound treatment.

A comprehensive, balanced, and competent approach to glioblastoma therapy helps soften its manifestations and neutralize consequences. In city clinics, you can receive competent help both in targeted and palliative treatment.
