He holds MBBS, MD in Radiation Oncology and DNB in Radiotherapy qualifications. He has also completed a Fellowship in Clinical Oncology from Tata Medical Center, Kolkata, along with European Certification in Medical Oncology and membership of the National Academy of Medical Sciences.

Dr. Abhijit Das has more than 15 years of overall clinical experience. His expertise includes advanced radiation techniques such as 3D Conformal Radiotherapy, Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy, Image-Guided Radiation Therapy, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, stereotactic radiotherapy and HDR brachytherapy.

His oncology practice also includes systemic treatments such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy for selected cancers, along with palliative care and management of acute oncology conditions.

He has experience treating cancers involving the head and neck, breast, lung, brain and other organs using highly precise radiation techniques designed to target tumors while reducing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues.

Patients looking for a Radiation Oncologist in Kolkata can consult Dr. Abhijit Das for radiation treatment planning, advanced radiotherapy, stereotactic treatment, brachytherapy, multidisciplinary cancer care and follow-up management.

3D Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT)

3D conformal radiotherapy uses three-dimensional imaging to shape radiation beams according to the tumor, helping deliver an effective dose while reducing exposure to nearby healthy tissues.

Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)

IMRT delivers radiation with varying intensity across different parts of the tumor, allowing precise treatment while protecting nearby critical organs.

Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)

IGRT uses imaging during radiation sessions to confirm tumor position and improve treatment accuracy before radiation is delivered.

Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT)

VMAT delivers precisely shaped radiation while the treatment machine rotates around the patient, helping achieve accurate dose distribution efficiently.

Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS)

Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers highly focused radiation to small and well-defined tumors, particularly selected brain and intracranial lesions.

Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SRT)

Stereotactic radiotherapy delivers highly precise radiation over a limited number of sessions for selected tumors while minimizing exposure to surrounding normal tissue.

HDR Brachytherapy

High-dose-rate brachytherapy places a radiation source close to or inside the tumor area, allowing concentrated radiation to be delivered directly to the affected tissue.

Total Body Irradiation

Total body irradiation delivers radiation to the whole body in selected patients, commonly as part of conditioning before certain stem cell transplantation procedures.

Head & Neck Cancer Radiation

Radiation treatment for head and neck cancers is planned to target the tumor accurately while preserving important structures involved in swallowing, speech and salivary function whenever possible.

Breast Cancer Radiation

Radiation therapy may be used after breast-conserving surgery or in selected post-mastectomy cases to reduce the risk of local cancer recurrence.

Lung Cancer Radiation

Radiation treatment for lung cancer may be used alone or combined with chemotherapy, immunotherapy or targeted treatment depending on cancer type and stage.

Brain Tumor Radiation

Radiation therapy and stereotactic techniques may be used for selected primary or metastatic brain tumors based on tumor size, number and location.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer medicines to control or destroy cancer cells and may be administered alone or combined with radiation therapy depending on the treatment plan.

Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy uses medicines designed to act on specific molecular abnormalities involved in cancer growth and may be recommended based on biomarker testing.

Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy helps the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells and may be used for selected cancers based on disease characteristics and biomarkers.

Palliative Radiation Therapy

Palliative radiation therapy is used to relieve symptoms such as pain, bleeding or pressure caused by advanced cancer and improve quality of life.
