About Our Department

Welcome to NECHRI’s Department of Radiotherapy

At the Department of Radiotherapy at North East Cancer Hospital and Research Institute, we are dedicated to providing cutting-edge cancer treatment with precision and care. Our advanced radiotherapy techniques at NECHRI, including IMRT (Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy), IGRT (Image-Guided Radiotherapy), and VMAT (Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy), ensure highly effective and targeted cancer treatment while minimizing side effects.

Our Advanced Radiotherapy Services:

IMRT (Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy)

IMRT is a high-precision radiotherapy technique that modulates radiation beams to conform to the shape of the tumour. This allows for:

Enhanced dose distribution to the tumour
Reduced exposure to surrounding healthy tissues
Improved treatment outcomes with fewer side effects
IGRT (Image-Guided Radiotherapy)

IGRT incorporates advanced imaging techniques to track tumour movements in real time, ensuring accurate radiation delivery. Benefits of IGRT include:

High precision in tumour targeting
Reduced risk of radiation exposure to healthy tissues
Adaptation to anatomical changes during treatment
VMAT (Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy)

VMAT is an advanced form of IMRT that delivers radiation continuously as the machine rotates around the patient. This technique offers:

Faster treatment sessions
Improved tumour targeting
Reduced radiation exposure to surrounding organs
