Bumrungrad International Hospital, on Sukhumvit Road in central Bangkok, is one of the largest private hospitals in Southeast Asia and a pioneer of international medical care, founded in 1980. With around 580 beds, it was the first hospital in Asia to earn Joint Commission International accreditation, in 2002, and it treats more than a million patients a year from over 190 countries. It is a multi-super-specialty centre with dedicated institutes in cardiac care, cancer, neuroscience, orthopaedics and spine, digestive disease, fertility and IVF, organ transplantation and robotic surgery, alongside one of the region's best-known health-screening centres.

Technologies and equipment
PET-CT
PET-CT is an advanced hybrid imaging method that combines positron emission tomography with computed tomography in a single scan, mapping both the metabolic activity and the anatomical structure of the body at once. A small dose of a radioactive tracer, often a glucose analogue, is injected and gathers in cells that are working harder than normal, which is typical of many tumours. Because it can show where a disease is active before it changes the shape of an organ, PET-CT is one of the most valuable tools for detecting cancer, working out how far it has spread, and checking whether treatment is working.
View technology→CyberKnife M6
CyberKnife M6 is a robotic system for stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Despite the name, there is no knife and no cutting. A small linear accelerator sits on a computer-guided robotic arm and delivers many thin beams of focused radiation from hundreds of angles. The beams converge on the tumour with sub-millimetre accuracy, so a high dose reaches the target while nearby healthy tissue is spared. Imaging during treatment tracks the tumour continuously, and a motion-synchronisation feature follows targets that move with breathing, such as those in the lung or liver. Treatment is non-invasive and painless, needs no rigid head frame, and is usually given as an outpatient over one to five sessions. The decision is always made individually by the radiation oncology team.
View technology→Brachytherapy
Brachytherapy is a form of internal radiotherapy in which a radiation source is placed inside the body, right at or next to the tumour, rather than aimed from outside. Because the source sits so close to the target, it can deliver a high, very localised dose while the radiation falls off sharply over a short distance, sparing the healthy tissue around it. Modern systems automate this safely: thin tubes are guided to the tumour, the source travels through them along a precise plan, and it is withdrawn at the end, leaving no radiation behind in the body.
View technology→TrueBeam STx
TrueBeam STx is an advanced linear accelerator, a machine that delivers external radiotherapy to treat cancer with very high precision. It shapes powerful radiation beams to match the exact size and shape of a tumour and aims them from many angles, so that a strong dose reaches the target while nearby healthy tissue and organs receive as little as possible. Because it tracks the target and can account for movement such as breathing, it is accurate to within millimetres. This makes it suitable both for conventional, daily radiotherapy and for advanced focused techniques that treat a tumour in only a few sessions. The treatment is non-invasive and painless, with nothing entering the body.
View technology→Da Vinci Robotic Surgery
The da Vinci robotic surgical system lets a surgeon perform complex operations through a few small keyhole incisions instead of one large cut. Sitting at a nearby console, the surgeon controls tiny wristed instruments and a magnified high-definition three-dimensional camera, while the robotic arms translate every hand movement into precise, steady motion inside the body. The system never acts on its own: the surgeon is in full control at all times. For patients, this minimally invasive approach often means less pain, smaller scars, less blood loss and a quicker return to normal life.
View technology→3 Tesla MRI
3 Tesla MRI is a high-field magnetic resonance imaging scanner that produces exceptionally detailed pictures of the inside of the body. The "3 Tesla" refers to the strength of its magnet, which is about twice that of a standard MRI scanner, and this extra power allows sharper, higher-resolution images, often in less time. Like all MRI, it uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves rather than X-rays, so there is no ionising radiation involved. It is especially valuable for examining the brain, the nervous system, joints and soft tissues, helping doctors detect and characterise problems that may be hard to see on other scans.
View technology→Digital Mammography
Digital mammography is a low-dose X-ray method used to screen for and detect breast cancer at an early stage. It captures very high-resolution digital images of the breast that a radiologist can examine and enhance on screen, revealing small nodules, masses and tiny specks of calcium that may not be felt or seen on other tests. Because it can find changes long before they cause symptoms, it is the cornerstone of breast cancer screening and one of the most effective tools for catching the disease when it is most treatable.
View technology→Robotic Arm-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery
Robotic arm-assisted orthopedic surgery is a technology used mainly in knee and hip replacement to plan and carry out the operation with very high accuracy. A detailed three-dimensional plan is built from the patient's own CT scan, and during surgery a robotic arm guides the surgeon's instruments so that bone is prepared and the implant is positioned to that exact plan. The surgeon always holds and directs the instrument; the robotic arm adds steadiness and built-in limits that protect the surrounding tissue. The aim is a joint that fits and balances well, which can mean less pain and a smoother recovery.
View technology→Neuronavigation
Neuronavigation is an image-guided surgical system that acts like a precise map and GPS for the brain and spine. Using the patient's own scans built into a three-dimensional model, it shows the surgeon exactly where the instruments are inside the body in real time, so the safest, shortest route to a lesion can be planned and followed. This is especially important in the brain and spine, where targets are often small, deep and surrounded by critical nerves and blood vessels. By guiding the surgeon away from healthy structures, neuronavigation supports accuracy, smaller approaches and added safety.
