The Meirav Breast Cancer Center
Breast cancer is the most common and most feared disease by women everywhere. At the Meirav Breast Cancer Center at Sheba Medical Center, we treat approximately 4,000 patients every year, which is more than any other hospital in Israel. Our experienced team provides comprehensive, innovative, and compassionate medical care. We offer a full range of diagnostics and therapies in order to design an integrative, individualized treatment program for every woman with breast cancer. Additionally, Sheba researchers are actively exploring the development and treatment of breast cancer to engineer more progressive methods of early diagnosis and treatment.
The Meirav Breast Cancer Center is named after Meirav Shamir Feldschuh, who passed away from breast cancer at 28 years old. As Sheba’s doctors explain, “her death bequeathed us a mandate to save lives.”

What Treatments Do We Offer?
In recent years, breast cancer treatment has been revolutionized. As a multidisciplinary area of medicine, breast cancer therapy is no longer dominated by surgery. Surgeons, oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists collaborate to personalize the best treatment, with a goal to minimize the need for surgery. The following treatments are offered at the Meirav Center:
Sentinel node sampling:
only one or a few lymph nodes are surgically removed from the node where cancer cells travel first. If no cancer is detected in this node, no additional surgery is required
3D MIRA:
a non-invasive, high-tech, and comfortable method of optical imaging used for breast cancer screening
Breast reconstruction:
modern techniques, such as the micro-vascular tissue flap and the skin-sparing mastectomy, both of which result in a more natural appearance
Surgical therapies:
treatment and follow-up of tumors by expert surgeons
FUS:
an experimental therapy that uses ultrasound waves to heat and destroy the tumor, causing no harm to surrounding tissue
Fertility preservation:
provides solutions to women prior to surgery and oncological treatments
BRCA testing:
a blood test that uses DNA analysis to uncover mutations in susceptible breast cancer genes
Hormone therapy
Chemotherapy
Radiotherapy
