Why Choose Apollo Hospitals for Cancer Treatment?

Their Proton Therapy Centre in Chennai, the first of its kind in the region, is an advanced treatment option for certain types of cancers.

Comprehensive Cancer Treatments at Apollo Hospitals

What is Proton Therapy?

Proton therapy is a precise form of radiation treatment that targets cancer cells while minimising damage to surrounding healthy tissue. It’s an advanced option particularly suited for treating tumours in sensitive areas of the body.

Benefits of Proton Therapy

Compared to traditional radiation, proton therapy causes fewer side effects, especially for cancers near vital structures like the brainstem and nerves. It also significantly lowers the risk of secondary cancers by reducing radiation exposure to healthy tissue.

Proton Therapy at Apollo Proton Cancer Centre

Apollo Proton Cancer Centre in Chennai houses South Asia's first proton therapy facility, offering cutting-edge treatment to patients with cancers in critical areas, and providing a specialised and effective treatment option.

What is Immunotherapy?

Immunotherapy boosts the body's immune system, helping it to effectively recognise and attack cancer cells that usually evade detection.

Benefits for Hard-to-Treat Cancers

This treatment is highly beneficial for cancers that are resistant to traditional therapies, such as melanoma, lung cancer, lymphoma, and kidney cancer. By using immune checkpoint inhibitors, it enhances the immune system’s ability to target and destroy cancer cells more aggressively.

Combining Immunotherapy with Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy complements immunotherapy by focusing on specific molecules involved in cancer growth. This combined approach helps reduce side effects while sparing healthy cells, offering a more precise treatment option.

What is Robotic Surgery?

Robotic surgery at Apollo Hospitals uses advanced robotics to perform highly precise surgeries through small incisions, minimising scarring and speeding up recovery.

Benefits of Robotic Surgery

This technique allows surgeons to control robotic arms with enhanced precision, reducing the risk of complications. Patients benefit from shorter hospital stays, less pain, and a quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.

অসাধারণ সার্ভিস এই ইনফরমেশন সেন্টারের,বিশেষত তাদের ব্যাবহার অনেক সুন্দর। যারা অসুস্থ থাকেন তারা সর্বদা দুশ্চিন্তায় থাকেন। সে সময় যদি কেউ হাসি মুখে পাশে থাকেন তার থেকে আনন্দের বোধকরি কিছু হয় না। apollo information centre তেমনই একটি প্রতিষ্ঠান। তাছাড়া অনলাইনে ডাক্তরদের সাথে রোগী দেখানোর সময় তারা যে ভাবে সাহায্য করেন, নিজেরা প্যানেলে থেকে ভাষাগত ভাবে হেল্প করেন, বাস্তবিক সেটা প্রশংসার দাবিদার। বিশেষত ইসরাত জাহান আপু টেলিমেডিসিন পরিসেবা গ্রহণের সময় যে ভাবে হেল্প করেন,রোগীর প্রতিটি কথা ইংরেজিতে অনুবাদ করে ডাক্তারকে বলেন,আবার ডাক্তার সাহেবের কথা বাংলায় বুঝিয়ে দেন।সেটা এক কথায় অসাধারণ।তারপর, দ্রুত রোগীদের কাছে প্রেসকিপশন পাঠানোর ব্যাবস্থা করেন।এগুলা সম্পূর্ণ আন্তরিকতার পরিচয় বহন করে। আমি এই প্রতিষ্ঠানের সমৃদ্ধি কামনা করি।
