Mustafa Tarık Turan, MD

Mustafa Tarık Turan, MD is a radiologist at Acibadem Eskisehir Hospital in Eskişehir, where he works within the Radiology Unit. His clinical interests include ultrasound imaging, computed tomography (CT), X-ray imaging and mammography. He supports diagnostic assessment through imaging examinations tailored to the clinical question, working alongside the referring physicians who request the studies and rely on the resulting reports. Dr. Turan has more than 39 years in medicine.

Dr. Turan graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Medicine in 1987 and completed his radiology education at Anadolu University Faculty of Medicine in 1991. He has been part of Acıbadem Healthcare Services since 2025. His practice is imaging-focused, and his role is to acquire, review and report diagnostic examinations rather than to direct treatment, which remains with the treating clinician.

Clinical focus

Dr. Turan’s work centers on diagnostic imaging across several modalities. Ultrasound imaging is one of his areas of interest; it uses sound waves rather than ionizing radiation and is frequently the first examination requested when soft tissues or organs need to be assessed. Computed tomography (CT) produces cross-sectional images of the body and is used when a more detailed view of internal structures is required for the clinical question at hand. X-ray imaging remains a standard examination for many questions concerning the bones, the chest and other regions.

Mammography, an X-ray based examination of the breast, also falls within his areas of interest. Across these modalities, the choice of examination depends on the referring physician’s question, the patient’s history and any prior imaging that is already available. Dr. Turan reviews the acquired images and prepares a report that is shared with the treating team, so that findings can be interpreted in the context of the overall clinical picture. Where an examination raises further questions, an additional or complementary imaging study may be suggested, and the final decision on next steps rests with the treating physician together with the patient.

How Dr. Turan works with international patients

Dr. Turan 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, including earlier MRI, CT, X-ray or ultrasound reports, laboratory and pathology results, operative notes and discharge summaries; the team also arranges appointments and organizes 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 and a discussion of the options, including which imaging examination, if any, may be appropriate. Video consultation is available for international patients, which can be useful for an initial review of existing images and reports before a decision about travel is made. Any imaging performed is interpreted cautiously and read in conjunction with the referring physician’s clinical assessment.
