Image Guided Brachytherapy in Yeshwanthpur, Bangalore

Image-guided brachytherapy is a technology used to cure cancer accurately. It uses highly detailed pictures to help doctors precisely target radiation therapy. This specific technique, known as Brachytherapy, involves the placement of radioactive sources right next to or inside the tumour, enabling precise treatment with minimal harm to the surrounding healthy cells. This treatment is mainly used to cure various cancers such as gynaecological, prostate, and breast cancers. It starts with complete imaging like CT scans or MRIs. The imaging techniques help doctors to have a complete sight of the tumour and its neighbouring tissues, making it easier for them to find the right spot to make incisions for surgery or insert brachytherapy applicators.

The procedure takes place in the dedicated Image-Guided Brachytherapy Suite, which is equipped with a specialised treatment room featuring CT-on-rails and anaesthesia capabilities. This setup eliminates the need to move patients around the hospital for imaging, treatment, or recovery. During the treatment, radioactive material is precisely inserted into the body, either within a body cavity or tissue, depending on the cancer's location. This targeted technique allows for real-time adjustments, ensuring the delivery of radiation is as per the patient's condition. By using high-quality imaging technology, doctors can diagnose and treat cancers accurately and efficiently, providing patients with the best treatment possible.
