Despite the high level of modern medicine, cardiovascular diseases and cancer are still the main causes of disability and mortality throughout the world.
Identification of risk factors and development of an individual program for their correction are the key to success in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Detection of malignant tumors in the early stages, primarily using instrumental screening (special protocols for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computer tomography (CT), ultrasound, etc.) determines the efficacy of treatment for most cancers.
That is why diagnosis of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases and the detection of malignant tumors in the early stages in the absence of clinical manifestations are the key goals of diagnostic packages (check-ups), which are carried out all over the world.
German Medical Institute (GMI) began its work in October 2017 primarily as an advanced clinic for diagnosis and treatment of oncological diseases. Subsequently, specialized methods for treating other therapeutical and surgery pathologies were introduced into clinical practice. Departments of cardiac surgery, interventional cardiology, orthopaedics, otorhinolaryngology, plastic and reconstructive surgery and many others were opened and are functioning.
In the shortest possible time, in the comfortable conditions of a super modern clinical research center, you will receive a conclusion about the state of your body’s health with personalized, up-to date recommendations for prevention and treatment, in accordance with principles of evidence-based medicine.
GMI is located on the island of Cyprus at an altitude of 200 meters above sea level, offering a beautiful view of the sea bay of Limassol Bay. It’s only 5-minute drive from the
The main goal of this type of check-up is to identify risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and develop an individual program for their correction. First, it is about identifying risk factors such as arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidaemia. Currently, these diseases cannot be cured radically, but they can be diagnosed in a timely manner and kept under control with the help of lifestyle correction and drug therapy, thereby preventing the development of such serious cardiovascular diseases as coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Also, as part of the therapeutic check-up, laboratory and instrumental examination of the thyroid gland, liver, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, and abdominal aorta are carried out. It is especially recommended to choose this package if you have family history of heart attacks and stroke, sedentary lifestyle, constant exposure to stress and bad habits.
If desired, you can supplement therapeutic screening with a consultation of gynaecologist/urologist, mammologist, gastroscopy, or colonoscopy and other diagnostic options. To personalize your check-up, we recommend you take a short interactive survey on the GMI website.

• Ultrasound of abdomen, kidneys
• Ultrasound of thyroid gland
• Duplex scanning of the neck arteries
• ECG, echocardiography, exercise stress test/ coronary CTA (as prescribed by cardiologist)
German Medical Institute (formerly German Oncology Center) is not only a leading clinic in the field of diagnosis and treatment of cancer in Cyprus, but also one of the key cancer centers in Europe generally. Equipping with the lates technologies and experienced, qualified doctors makes it possible to diagnose malignant tumors at the earliest stages of disease. You are recommended to choose this package if you have a family history of malignant tumors. However, given that most cancers occur and are detected by chance, and do not have convincingly proven risk factors, such screening is suitable for everyone.
• Laboratory blood tests: (see therapeutic check-up above + PSA according to the age)
• Full body MRI
• Ultrasound of abdomen, kidneys
• Ultrasound of thyroid gland
• Low dose CT scan of the lungs
• Examination by a dermatologist, mapping of moles
• Gastroscopy (intravenous sedation)
• Colonoscopy (intravenous sedation)
