Specialized Radiation Therapies performed by Dr. SK Mandal

Dr. Mandal offers different kinds of advanced radiation treatments. These include:

• Targeted Radiation Therapy: This treatment focuses on the tumor, reducing harm to other tissues.
• Cyberknife Treatment: A non-invasive treatment that uses robotic technology to precisely target tumors, even in tough spots.
• Intracavitary Brachytherapy: This therapy places radiation inside the body near the tumor, delivering high doses right where it’s needed.
• PET Scan for Diagnosis: This scan helps find out exactly where the cancer is, which is crucial for planning treatment.
• 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT): This technique shapes the radiation beams to match the shape of the tumor. It helps protect nearby healthy tissues from radiation damage while effectively treating the cancer.
• Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): IMRT allows for the radiation dose to be adjusted and shaped more precisely, providing higher doses to the tumor while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. This is especially useful for tumors located near sensitive structures.
• Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT): SBRT delivers high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumors with extreme accuracy. This therapy is typically used for tumors in the lungs, liver, and other organs where surgery might not be an option.
