Cancer Latest Technology
The Radiation Oncology Department has sophisticated Siemens Linear Accelerator with multi-energy photons and electron beam facility enabling us to treat all types of tumors. This machine is also capable of arc therapy, total skin electron therapy and total body irradiation. The accuracy of this specialized treatment is checked with the EPID (Electronic Portal Imaging Device).
The Department also has MLC (Multi Leaf Collimeter), IMRT (Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy), 3-D CRT (3- Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy), PET-CT Guided Radiotherapy, Syngo Fusion Technology, 3-Dimesional Treatment Planning System, Simulator, Full-fledged Cobalt Unit for high precision external beam Radiotherapy. The CT scan, MRI & PET-CT Scan has networking with Radiotherapy Planning & Treatment which makes the entire treatment procedure highly precise.
IMRT & 3-D Conformal Radiotherapy : -
Three Dimensional conformal Radiotherapy with multiple beams configurations helps in increasing therapeutic ratio by helping us preferentially treat tumor and protect normal tissues. IMRT (Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy) is an advanced form of 3D CRT in which conformal radiation is delivered using multiple beams lets of varying radiation intensities leading to a very high degree of precision.
PET-CT Scanner & PET-CT Guided Radiotherapy : -
PET-CT Scanner helps in : -
Diagnose : -To diff a tumor (benign or malignant)
Staging : -Whole-body survey for metastases
Monitor : - To monitor response to therapy
Recurrence : -To scan for early detection of recurrence
Radiotherapy : -Accurate localization & planning
The PET-CT Scanner combines PET and diagnostic CT to produce a biograph image and measurements, which records in exquisite detail the life process at molecular level of tissues and internal organs from one non-invasive diagnostic procedure. It has superior diagnostic accuracy and patient management and is used clinically to detect & stage cancer, plan treatment and monitor therapy.
PET-CT Scanner images are transferred to 3-D Planning System. PET-CT Guided Radiotherapy is planned based on Cellular & Molecular Diagnostic information given by PET-CT Scanner. Treatment is based at cellular & molecular level!
High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy : -
As opposed to External Beam Radiation, in Brachytherapy, the source of radiation is placed within or adjacent to tumor tissue itself. This process is useful for cervical, breast, esophageal, bronchial, bile duct cancers etc. The HDR Brachytherapy Unit has its own dedicated and computerized 3-D Treatment Planning System and the treatment is delivered in a few minutes.
