The department team consists of oncologists, hematologists (specialists in blood diseases treatment), radiologists, nutrition specialists.

Every year, 2,000 cancer patients get the treatment in BGS Global Hospital in Kengeri, Bangalore.

Radiation oncology

Most patients with cancer receive radiotherapy. The ionizing radiation destroys cancer cells and prevents their growth. Radiotherapy has temporal side effects such as skin dryness, itch, and blisters. After such a procedure, nausea and vomiting can appear. 

To decrease the risk of side effects, doctors use modern installations and methods of radiotherapy, including:

  • Three-dimensional stereotactic surgery. This method is developed specially for brain tumor treatment to avoid healthy brain cells damaging. The system uses combined CT and MR images and affects the malignant cells only.
  • IGRT – image-guided radiation therapy. It is used for treatment of moving tumors in the lungs and stomach cancer. During radiotherapy, a special linear accelerator adjusts to the patient’s breath and destroys the tumor. The negative impact on neighbor cells is minimal.
  • IMRT– intensity-modulated radiation therapy. That is an advanced radiotherapy affecting the tumor with high radiation doses. Due to high intensity, the radiation procedures go faster. In comparison to a standard radiation treatment, a patient has fewer sessions and recovers faster.
  • TrueBeam STx is an advanced medical linear accelerator for radiotherapy. It effectively irradiates a new formation. This device makes possible to affect moving tumors and formations hard to reach.

Hepatic resection

That is a surgical treatment for malignant liver diseases. The operation is accomplished under general anesthesia and takes 2-5 hours. Doctors remove the affected part of the organ and neighboring tissue. Eventually, the healthy part of the liver recovers and comes back to its ordinary size.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)

The procedure is carried out to treat diseases of the bile and pancreatic ducts. A doctor uses an endoscope, a thin flexible tube that is inserted through the esophagus under X-ray control. Using an endoscope, the doctor installs a stent to dilate the bile ducts or remove gallstones. Due to the absence of incisions, a patient recovers within 1 day.
