Radiation Therapy

Expert Care by Dr. Divyesh Pathak

At Adwaita Cancer Hospital & ICU, led by the esteemed Dr. Divyesh Pathak, we offer advanced radiation therapy as a cornerstone of cancer treatment. Our state-of-the-art facility and specialized expertise allow us to deliver effective, targeted radiation treatment to combat cancer, aiming for optimal patient outcomes with minimal side effects.

What is Radiation Therapy?

Radiation therapy is a highly effective treatment that uses high-energy radiation to destroy or damage cancer cells. It is often used to target specific areas affected by cancer, either as a primary treatment or in combination with surgery or chemotherapy to improve success rates and reduce the risk of recurrence.

What to Expect During Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy sessions are typically short, lasting 15–30 minutes, and are scheduled over several weeks. Our team will guide you through every step, from preparation to post-treatment care, to ensure you feel comfortable and informed. Throughout the treatment, Dr. Pathak will closely monitor progress and adjust as necessary to maximize results and minimize side effects.

Types of Radiation Therapy at Adwaita Cancer Hospital

External Beam Radiation Therapy
(EBRT)

Internal Radiation Therapy (Brachytherapy)

Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)

Image-Guided Radiation Therapy
(IGRT)

External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT)

EBRT is one of the most common forms of radiation therapy, where beams of high-energy radiation are precisely aimed at the cancerous area from outside the body. Our hospital uses advanced imaging techniques to ensure precise targeting, minimizing harm to surrounding healthy tissues.

Internal Radiation Therapy (Brachytherapy)

In brachytherapy, a radioactive source is placed directly inside or near the tumor. This approach delivers high doses of radiation to the tumor while sparing nearby healthy tissue, making it especially useful for cancers like prostate, breast, and cervical cancer.

Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)

IMRT is a specialized form of EBRT that allows for varying radiation intensity within each beam. This precision allows us to deliver higher radiation doses to the tumor while sparing nearby organs and tissues, enhancing both safety and effectiveness.

Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)

Using imaging technology, IGRT provides real-time visualization during radiation therapy, ensuring accurate delivery of radiation to the tumor’s location. This method is particularly beneficial for tumors that may shift position, such as those in the lung or abdomen.

Benefits of Radiation Therapy

  • Targeted Treatment: Radiation therapy allows for precise targeting of cancer cells, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
  • Minimally Invasive: Most radiation therapy treatments are non-invasive and allow patients to continue daily activities.
  • Effective for Various Cancer Types: Radiation therapy is a versatile treatment option used for many types of cancer, including breast, lung, prostate, head, neck, and more.
