Clinical focus

Dr. Özdil’s clinical work concentrates on ultrasonographic imaging and mammography, with a particular interest in breast diseases. Ultrasonographic imaging uses sound waves to visualize soft tissues and is commonly used to assess findings identified during clinical examination or on other imaging. Mammography is an X-ray-based examination of the breast used to evaluate breast tissue and to characterize changes that may need further assessment.

In the context of breast diseases, imaging findings are interpreted alongside the patient’s history, symptoms and any previous examinations. Imaging alone does not establish a diagnosis in every case; depending on the findings, the referring physician may recommend further evaluation. Dr. Özdil’s reports are intended to support the treating team in reaching a clear clinical assessment.

How Dr. Özdil works with international patients

Dr. Özdil consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as ultrasound, mammography, MRI or CT reports, laboratory and pathology results, operative notes and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination where appropriate and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their imaging or case before traveling.
