The capital’s oncology service is a shining example of how new standards and approaches improve the quality and accessibility of medical care in the city. Moscow standard of oncological care, which was introduced just a few years ago, has shown very good results. For example, thanks to it, the detection rate of oncological diseases has grown to 67 percent, and it is increasing every year. And thanks to the creation of anchor oncology centers based on the leading capital clinics, the oncology service has received not only a powerful technological base, but also the ability to ensure continuity at each stage of patient treatment – from the moment of suspicion of the disease to subsequent dispensary observation.
Despite the excellent results, the city does not stop there and continues to actively develop this area. Specialists develop new methods and algorithms, client paths that make the treatment process as transparent and understandable as possible for the patient. The most modern equipment is supplied to hospitals, existing hospital buildings are reconstructed according to uniform standards, new treatment and diagnostic complexes are built.
A year ago, the new ultra-modern treatment and diagnostic complex of the Moscow Clinical Research Center (MCRC) named after A.S. Loginov received its first patients. Its opening was a key stage in the modernization of the capital’s oncology service. The area of over 75 thousand square meters houses a 24-hour and day hospital, an outpatient oncology care center, rheumatology and endoscopic centers, radiation therapy and radioisotope diagnostics departments, a modern pathomorphology laboratory, a powerful operating block with 18 operating rooms and other services. During the first year of operation, more than 180 thousand patients were treated in the new complex.
Full cycle of oncological care, high-tech operations and radiation therapy
The A.S. Loginov MCNC operates an outpatient oncology care center. A full cycle of multidisciplinary oncology care is organized here, from diagnostics and treatment to subsequent lifelong patient monitoring. Since the opening of the new building of the A.S. Loginov MCNC, oncologists of the outpatient oncology care center have conducted about 330 thousand appointments.
Every week, doctors perform more than 200 high-tech operations in the surgical hospital. Doctors use robotic technologies, X-ray surgical systems and navigation stations. The most complex interventions are performed in a hybrid operating room equipped with an angiograph. Thanks to gentle anesthesia methods, minimally invasive operations and active postoperative recovery, patients return to full life in the shortest possible time.
The unique technological equipment of the complex made it possible to conduct radiation therapy, which had not been performed at the A.S. Loginov Moscow Scientific Center before. Now there is a radiotherapy department with three state-of-the-art linear accelerators and a brachytherapy system. About 270 patients receive treatment daily. Since the opening of the department, more than 1.7 thousand people have undergone radiation therapy, and over 30 thousand radiotherapy sessions have been conducted. The new complex has modern linear accelerators for antitumor 3D and 4D radiation therapy. They allow procedures to be performed with the highest precision, without affecting the patient’s healthy tissues.
From a pathomorphological laboratory to an inter-district rheumatology center
A centralized pathomorphological laboratory operates on the basis of the A.S. Loginov MCNC complex. It conducts histological, histochemical and immunohistochemical studies, biopsy. The results of the studies allow doctors to establish an accurate diagnosis, determine the stage of the disease, and also correctly and quickly select treatment tactics. Every day, the laboratory receives materials from 300-400 patients and conducts up to 1.5 thousand studies of glass preparations.
Since the opening of the new medical and diagnostic complex The employees of the pathological anatomy department of the A.S. Loginov Moscow Cancer Research Center have performed more than 100 thousand biopsies (about 450 thousand slides), and the time it takes to obtain the results of such studies has been reduced by one and a half times. The pathomorphological laboratory operates in a digital format: all research materials are scanned and securely stored in a single digital archive, which is replenished with studies from all the anchor oncology centers of the capital. The formation of the largest database has become the basis for the development of artificial intelligence technologies.
In addition, an inter-district rheumatology center operates on the basis of the A.S. Loginov MCNC. Thus, the patient receives all the necessary assistance – from a comprehensive examination to effective therapy and observation – in one medical organization. Residents of the Eastern, South-Eastern and North-Eastern administrative districts of Moscow receive treatment here. During the time of work in the new building, specialists of the rheumatology center have held appointments approximately 60 thousand times.
High-tech endoscopy center, multidisciplinary care and more
At the end of 2023, the A.S. Loginov Moscow Scientific Center began operating Endoscopy center. Specialists perform diagnostic procedures there and, if possible, immediately remove neoplasms or refer the patient for surgical treatment. New modern equipment has been installed in 12 manipulation rooms, ensuring the most accurate diagnostics. Over 10 thousand studies have been conducted in the endoscopic center.
The consultative and diagnostic department has all the capabilities to provide multidisciplinary care at the highest level. Over the year of work in the new building, more than 85 thousand patients received expert care in various areas, including gastroenterology, proctology, surgery, neurology, urology, gynecology, endocrinology, traumatology, pulmonology and cardiology.
The most comfortable conditions for patients have been created in the hospital of the new complex of the A.S. Loginov Moscow Scientific Center. In small wards with panoramic windows, a shower and a toilet, multifunctional beds with an electric drive are installed, there is a button to call medical personnel, air conditioning and ventilation systems. A barrier-free environment has been created for people with limited mobility.
More than 31 thousand patients have already received inpatient treatment in the new complex. In addition, about five thousand people received treatment as part of the day hospital.
The team of the A.S. Loginov MKNC is represented by the best medical specialists. Among them are world experts, academicians, professors, doctors and candidates of medical sciences.
Since 2019, a new standard of oncology care has been implemented in the capital. Five anchor oncology centers have been organized on the basis of the A.S. Loginov Moscow Scientific Center, Oncology Center No. 1 of the S.S. Yudin City Clinical Hospital, S.P. Botkin City Clinical Hospital, the Kommunarka Moscow Multidisciplinary Clinical Center, and the Moscow City Oncology Hospital No. 62.
