More than just a regional hospital, it serves as the nation’s premier emergency and acute care fortress, operating as a primary academic arm of Tel Aviv University. Its reputation as a top-tier destination for medical tourism is cemented by consistent high rankings in international publications like Newsweek, drawing patients from every corner of the globe who seek the specific "Ichilov standard" of aggressive, science-led intervention. The sheer scale of the campus reflects its role as a city within a city, powered by a workforce of over 6,400 dedicated professionals, including 1,100 world-class physicians. The institution’s intellectual pedigree is exceptionally high, with nearly 90% of its specialists having undergone rigorous residency or fellowship training at elite medical centers across Europe and North America. This global perspective translates into a prolific research environment, where over 350 faculty members drive discovery through prestigious international grants, ensuring that the transition from laboratory breakthrough to bedside treatment is measured in months, not years. Ichilov’s clinical architecture is built on a national reference model, meaning it houses the definitive centers of excellence for the most complex medical challenges.

FAQ

What services do patients seek at Ichilov Sourasky Medical Center?

In cooperation with national institutions, the clinic offers numerous surgical services in neurology, transplantology, and oncology. In addition, doctors provide high-quality multidisciplinary treatment and diagnosis for cardiovascular diseases, reproductive system conditions, and the most advanced pediatric diseases.

Should I choose a medical center for cancer treatment?

The hospital treats all stages of oncological diseases, regardless of a patient's age or gender, using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The medical center is also testing the MinION, which enables real-time detection of any cancer cells remaining in the abdominal cavity after surgery.

What is the uniqueness of the hospital?

For the first time in the country, the hospital introduced the innovative EOS diagnostic visualization system, which enables accurate diagnosis of the spine, bones, and joints with minimal radiation exposure and successfully replaces joints with the most suitable implant.

Is robotic prostate surgery available at the clinic?

Doctors widely use DaVinci technology for small incisions to gain access, reducing the risk of infection without unnecessarily traumatizing healthy tissue, and removing tumors with high precision. As a result, highly qualified doctors achieve impeccable outcomes in treating the prostate.

What is the Nitric Oxideo cancer therapy being tested at Ichilov?

In 2026, Ichilov remains at the global forefront of nitric oxide (NO) therapy. This world-first human trial involves introducing high concentrations of nitric oxide gas directly into tumor tissues. Early clinical results have shown the ability of NO to sensitize resistant tumors to traditional treatments and even trigger direct cancer cell death, offering new hope for advanced-stage patients.

How does the hospital lead in spinal cord injury repair?

In a groundbreaking collaboration with Matricelf, Ichilov has established a specialized production line for engineered nerve implants. These are 3D-bioprinted, patient-specific tissues designed to bridge spinal cord gaps. The goal of this revolutionary cellular therapy is to enable paraplegic patients to regain motor function and potentially walk again.

What makes the oncology division a pioneer in CAR-T therapy?

Ichilov was the first in Israel to develop its own in-house CAR-T cell product. This advanced cellular therapy involves extracting a patient's T-cells, genetically reprogramming them in the hospital's GMP-certified labs to recognize specific cancer markers, and reinfusing them. This has become a standard of care at Ichilov for aggressive lymphomas and multiple myeloma that have failed all other treatments.

What is flash CT, and how is it used here?

The hospital utilizes Flash CT technology, which is significantly faster than traditional scanners. It can scan the entire chest in less than 1 second, often without requiring patients to hold their breath. This is particularly relevant for pediatric patients and those in the Sylvan Adams Emergency Hospital who require "ultra-fast" diagnostics during critical trauma or stroke windows.

How is the IceCure system used for tumor treatment?

Ichilov utilizes the Israeli-developed IceCure (ProSense) technology, a form of Cryoablation. Instead of surgery, doctors use a needle-thin probe to freeze tumors (particularly in the breast and kidney) to -170°C. This turns the tumor into an ice ball, killing the cells in situ with no need for general anesthesia or large incisions.

What is the focus of the awake brain surgery program?

The neurosurgery department is world-renowned for awake craniotomies. During tumor removal near speech or motor centers, the patient is awakened to perform tasks (e.g., speaking or moving the fingers). This allows the surgeon to map the brain in "real-time," ensuring the maximum possible tumor removal while protecting the patient's essential neurological functions.

Does Ichilov Sourasky Medical Centre in Tel Aviv offer specialized digital health and AI diagnostics?

Yes. Through its I-Medata Innovation Center, Ichilov uses AI algorithms to predict patient deterioration and personalize medication dosages. For example, their digital oncology program uses big data to match a patient’s specific molecular tumor profile with the most successful global clinical trials, ensuring precision medicine at every stage.
