Stereotactic Radiosurgery Hospitals in India

The surgeons are highly qualified for stereotactic radiosurgery at the Indian hospitals and give their best for the satisfaction of the patients. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a highly precise form of radiation therapy used primarily to treat tumors and other abnormalities of the brain. There have been considerable differences in cost between the countries like USA, UK, Canada & South Africa as compared to India when it comes to medical treatment. Gamma knife radiosurgery involves four phases: placement of the head frame, imaging of tumor location, computerized dose planning, and radiation delivery. You can also estimate the cost of some common treatments, which are based on average treatment cost of various hospitals & clinics. Patient can evaluate the kind of savings they can do by taking decision of traveling for their treatments like stereotactic radiosurgery at Indian hospitals at cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad and Bangalore .

Stereotactic radiosurgery is a non-surgical procedure that uses highly focused x-rays to treat certain types of tumors, inoperable lesions and as a post-operative treatment to eliminate any leftover tumor tissue or to obliterate abnormal blood vessels in congenital arteriovernous malformations. The treatment involves the delivery of a single high-dose—or sometimes smaller, multiple doses—of radiation beams that converge on the specific area of the brain where the tumor or other abnormality resides. Using a helmet-like device that keeps the head completely still and three-dimensional computer-aided planning software, stereotactic radiosurgery minimizes the amount of radiation to healthy brain tissue. It is an important alternative to invasive surgery, especially for tumors and blood vessel abnormalities located deep within or close to vital areas of the brain. Radiosurgery is used to treat many types of brain tumors, both benign or malignant and primary or metastatic. Additionally, radiosurgery is used to treat arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), a tangle of expanded blood vessels that disrupts normal blood flow in the brain and is the leading cause of stroke in young people. Although stereotactic radiosurgery is often completed in a one-day session, physicians sometimes recommend a fractionated treatment, in which treatments are given over a period of days or weeks. This is referred to as stereotactic radiotherapy. It works in the same way as other forms of radiation treatment. It does not actually remove the tumor; rather, it distorts the DNA of tumor cells. As a result, these cells lose their ability to reproduce. Following the treatment, benign tumors usually shrink over a period of 18 months to two years. Malignant and metastatic tumors may shrink more rapidly, even within a couple of months. When treated with radiosurgery, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) begin to thicken and close off.

There are plentiful advantages of traveling to hospitals of India for a medical treatment like stereotactic radiosurgery & some of them are: India has internationally accredited medical facilities using the latest technologies, highly qualified Physicians/Surgeons and hospital support staff, significant cost savings compared to domestic private healthcare, medical treatment costs in India are lower by at least 60-80% when compared to similar procedures in North America and the UK, no wait lists, fluent English speaking staff, options for private room, translator, private chef, dedicated staff during your stay and many other tailor-made services, can easily be combined with a holiday/business trip.
