## Who this is for
International patients seeking clarification of a suspected cancer, an existing diagnosis or treatment options.

## What they do

A multidisciplinary team discusses your medical file and recommends a plan. The hospital says these meetings take place weekly.

## Who it’s for

International patients seeking clarification of a suspected cancer, an existing diagnosis or treatment options.

## How to start

Create an account on the international patient platform. Send the medical file and imaging in French or English, following the platform instructions.

## Cost and insurance

As of October 2026, Institut Curie lists €700 for the medical opinion. Any treatment is a separate service with its own estimate; ask about insurance reimbursement.

## What to check

A records-based opinion does not commit you to treatment in France or guarantee acceptance for treatment.

## How it fits

Like Gustave Roussy, Institut Curie offers a French hospital review from abroad. Compare the actual review scope, follow-up and fee.

## Questions I would ask

- Which specialist would review my cancer and the decision I am facing?
- Does the review include rereading the actual scans and pathology, or only their reports?
- What will I receive, and how can my oncologist ask follow-up questions?
