Radiation Therapy at Birat Cancer Institute
Welcome to the Centre of Excellence in Radiation Therapy, where cutting-edge technology meets compassionate care. Our dedicated team of radiation oncologists and specialists is committed to providing precise and effective radiation treatments for cancer patients.
Services we provide
External Beam Radiation
Our state-of-the-art technology allows us to deliver targeted radiation from outside the body, precisely focusing on cancerous tissues while sparing surrounding healthy organs. This method is commonly used for various types of solid tumors.
Brachytherapy
For certain cancers, we offer brachytherapy, a form of internal radiation therapy where radioactive sources are placed directly into or near the tumor. This allows for highly localized treatment, minimizing exposure to nearby healthy tissues.
Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Non-invasive and highly precise, stereotactic radiosurgery delivers concentrated doses of radiation to specific areas, often used for brain tumors and other localized conditions. This technique is known for its accuracy and reduced impact on surrounding tissues.
Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)
Our advanced imaging technology ensures accuracy during radiation delivery by allowing real-time visualization of the tumor. This enhances the precision of treatment, especially when dealing with tumors that may move during respiration or other bodily functions.
Key Features
Tailored treatment plans based on the specific needs of each patient.Advanced imaging techniques for precise targeting.
