Brachytherapy Treatment
Trusted by Patients From 35+ Countries
What is Brachytherapy Treatment?
Brachytherapy is an advanced form of radiation therapy in which a radioactive source is placed inside or very close to the tumor. This allows high doses of radiation to be delivered directly to the cancer while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues.
Why is Brachytherapy Treatment Done?
It is performed to treat various types of cancers with precision, reduce tumor size, and improve treatment outcomes while limiting side effects compared to external radiation.
Who is an Eligible Candidate for Brachytherapy Treatment in India?
Patients with localized cancers such as prostate, cervical, breast, or head and neck cancers are evaluated for brachytherapy based on tumor size, location, and overall health.
Types of Brachytherapy Treatment
Includes low-dose rate (LDR), high-dose rate (HDR), and permanent seed implantation, depending on the cancer type.
Diagnostic Tests Done Before Brachytherapy Treatment
Imaging studies such as CT scan, MRI, ultrasound, and biopsy are performed to assess tumor characteristics and plan treatment.
Procedure of Brachytherapy Treatment
Radioactive material is placed inside the body using applicators or needles, delivering targeted radiation over a specific period. The procedure may be temporary or permanent depending on the technique.
