Dr. Basavaraj Harijan currently practises at HCG Cancer Center, Hubli.
3DCRT uses three-dimensional imaging to shape radiation beams according to the tumour and surrounding anatomy.
IMRT adjusts radiation intensity across multiple beams to deliver a precise dose to the tumour while reducing exposure to nearby healthy tissues.
IGRT uses imaging during treatment to verify tumour position and improve the accuracy of radiation delivery.
RapidArc delivers modulated radiation while the treatment machine rotates around the patient, allowing efficient and conformal treatment.
SRS delivers highly focused radiation to selected small and well-defined targets using stereotactic precision.
SBRT delivers high-precision radiation to selected tumours outside the brain over a limited number of treatment sessions.
Intracavitary brachytherapy places a radiation source within a body cavity close to the tumour and is commonly used for selected gynaecological cancers.
Interstitial brachytherapy places radiation sources within or close to tumour tissue to provide highly localised treatment.
Intraluminal brachytherapy delivers radiation from within a hollow organ and may be considered for selected oesophageal and other cancers.
Precision radiation therapy for head and neck cancers aims to control the tumour while reducing radiation exposure to nearby critical structures.
Radiotherapy may form part of multidisciplinary treatment for selected oesophageal cancers and can include external beam or intraluminal techniques.
Cervical cancer treatment may include external beam radiotherapy combined with intracavitary or interstitial brachytherapy depending on disease characteristics.
Radiotherapy may be used for selected endometrial cancers depending on stage, pathology and recurrence risk.
Radiation therapy may be used before or after surgery for selected sarcomas to improve local tumour control.
