Radiation Oncologist & Precision Radiotherapy Specialist in Mumbai10 Years
HCG Cancer Hospital
Mumbai
Dr. Amrita Srivastava is an experienced Consultant Radiation Oncologist in Mumbai with around 10 years of experience in high-precision radiotherapy and comprehensive cancer care. She currently consults at HCG Cancer Hospital, Borivali, and HCG ICS Khubchandani Cancer Centre, Colaba, Mumbai.
She has completed her MBBS, DMRT and DNB in Radiation Oncology, along with a Post Graduate Diploma in Clinical Research and a Certificate Course in Essentials of Palliative Care. She has also received additional training in cancer nutrition, enabling her to support patients with a more comprehensive approach to oncology care.
Dr. Amrita Srivastava has expertise in advanced radiation techniques including Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS), Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SRT), Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT), Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT), Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy and brachytherapy.
Her clinical interests include the radiation treatment of head and neck cancers, breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, gynecological cancers, gastrointestinal cancers, brain and spinal tumours, and bone and soft tissue malignancies.
She has extensive hands-on experience with advanced radiotherapy platforms including EDGE, Novalis Tx, Trilogy, Versa HD and HALCYON. Her training and professional experience include Jupiter Hospital, Thane, and several years at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Mumbai.
Dr. Amrita Srivastava follows an evidence-based and patient-centred approach to cancer treatment. She focuses on accurate treatment planning, precision radiation delivery, symptom management and clear communication to help patients and their families understand each stage of treatment.
In addition to clinical practice, she has been actively involved in research, academic presentations, cancer awareness programmes and professional oncology conferences. Her goal is to provide personalised and comprehensive radiation oncology care while minimising treatment-related effects on surrounding healthy tissues.
Radiation therapy uses high-energy radiation to target and destroy cancer cells while protecting nearby healthy tissues as much as possible. Dr. Amrita Srivastava plans radiation treatment based on the type, stage, size and location of the tumour.
SRS is a highly precise radiation technique generally used for selected brain and intracranial lesions. It delivers concentrated radiation to the treatment area while limiting exposure to surrounding normal brain tissue.
SBRT delivers highly focused radiation to selected tumours outside the brain, often over a limited number of treatment sessions. Dr. Amrita Srivastava uses advanced planning methods to improve treatment precision for suitable patients.
IMRT allows the radiation dose to be shaped closely around the tumour. This technique can help provide effective treatment while reducing unnecessary radiation exposure to nearby healthy structures.
IGRT uses imaging before or during radiation treatment to confirm the exact tumour position. This helps improve treatment accuracy, particularly when the target is close to sensitive organs.
Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy delivers radiation while the treatment machine rotates around the patient. It allows precise dose distribution and can reduce overall treatment delivery time in selected cases.
Brachytherapy is an internal radiation treatment in which a radiation source is placed close to or within the tumour area. It may be used for selected gynecological, prostate and other cancers depending on the clinical requirement.
Radiation therapy is commonly used as part of breast cancer management after breast-conserving surgery and in selected patients after mastectomy. Advanced planning techniques help minimise radiation exposure to nearby organs.
Head and neck cancers often require highly accurate radiation planning because important structures are located close to the tumour. Techniques such as IMRT and IGRT may help deliver treatment while reducing exposure to normal tissues.
Radiation therapy may be used in different stages of lung cancer either alone or in combination with other cancer treatments. Advanced techniques such as SBRT may be suitable for selected early-stage lung tumours.
Dr. Amrita Srivastava provides precision radiotherapy for selected patients with prostate cancer using techniques such as IMRT, VMAT and IGRT to accurately target the prostate while protecting surrounding organs.
Radiation treatment may be used for cervical, uterine, vaginal and other gynecological cancers. Treatment may involve external beam radiation therapy, brachytherapy or a combination of both depending on the diagnosis.
Dr. Amrita Srivastava manages selected brain and spinal tumours using precision radiation techniques such as SRS, SRT and advanced image-guided radiotherapy according to tumour size, location and clinical condition.
