It houses next generation Elekta radiation therapy system for high precision, high speed treatment of cancer

Nayati Healthcare launched Cancer Care Centre, bringing medical, surgical and radiation technology for end to end treatment for mass market of tier II and tier III cities for the entire North India. The Centre of Excellence for Excellence was inaugurated by Yuvraj Singh, Cricketer. A unique interactive session between care givers and cancer victors marked this momentous occasion to create new hope and awareness that cancer is curable if detected early.

The hospital has all modern technologies and advanced international protocols for the treatment of cancer. It houses next generation Elekta radiation therapy system for high precision, high speed treatment of cancer. The speed of agility allows delivery of the radiation dose three times faster than usual, which will significantly shorten the treatment time for patients. The high dose rate mode in Versa HD, will be able to cut treatment time to half, which enhances patient comfort. With the superior beam-shaping ability of Versa HD, we will be able to very precisely mold the radiation beam to the tumor’s shape, which means normal tissue surrounding the lesion is exposed less to the beam. The centre also has the region’s first PET – CT Scan to give high quality imaging to enhance the plan of treatment for cancer patients. A well set-up department of nuclear medicine, a fully equipped surgical oncology centre with modular operation theatres and dedicated beds for day care chemotherapy and special units which includes paediatric beds and private rooms for patients undergoing chemotherapy. The centre also has Brachy therapy for internal radiation.
