Allergen-specific immunotherapy

Allergen-specific immunotherapy is the only modern treatment changing the course of an allergic disease; it is used to develop a tolerance to the allergen causing the allergy. We can perform allergen-specific immunotherapy for the treatment of pollen allergy, household dust allergy, insecticide allergy and animal allergy. It is possible to carry out the treatment using subcutaneous injections or sublingual drops. We perform allergen-specific immunotherapy on both children and adults.

HDL cholesterol

Lipoproteins are complexes of proteins and lipids which are classified according to density into high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL). HDL binds excess cholesterol to remove it from cells. A higher blood level of HDL-cholesterol (HDL-Chol) or “good” cholesterol is a protective mechanism against atherosclerotic changes. LDL-cholesterol or “bad” cholesterol promotes cholesterol deposition on the walls of blood vessels. A high blood level of LDL-cholesterol is a prognostic indicator for atherosclerosis.

Treatment of tumours involving the spine

Of the tumours, the most frequent occurrences in the spine region are the result of other tumours, or metastases. Tumours originating from the spine and nerve structures occur less frequently.

Radio-iodine treatment procedure in case of hyperthyroidism

The function of the thyroid gland is to produce hormones that regulate the body's development, growth and metabolism. When the thyroid is overactive, it produces too much of the thyroid hormones. In autoimmune hyperthyroidism (diffuse toxic goiter or Graves' disease), the entire thyroid gland is overactive. In autonomous thyroid adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter, thyroid nodules produce excess thyroid hormones.

Invasive prostate cancer diagnostics: a combined method of mpMRI and US or fusion guided biopsy

In March 2017, the Centre of Urology at East Tallinn Central Hospital was the first in Estonia to begin using a new method for obtaining tissue samples from the prostate. The method includes the combining or fusion of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography. The method enables a very precise tissue sample to be collected from a suspicious lesion in the prostate discovered during an MRI, which greatly improves the diagnostic value when looking for prostate cancer.
