Radiation oncologist in Kolkata

A radiation oncologist is a doctor who treats cancer using radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing. At the CK Birla Hospitals, Kolkata, our radiation oncologist is specially trained to plan and deliver safe and effective radiation treatment.

Radiation therapy can be used alone or along with surgery and chemotherapy. It is a common and important part of cancer treatment. Our radiation oncologist works closely with other cancer specialists to make sure you receive complete and personalised care.

When Do You Need a Radiation Oncologist?

You may be referred to a radiation oncologist if you are diagnosed with cancer of the breast, lung, prostate, cervix, head and neck, brain, or other parts of the body. Radiation therapy may be used to:

• Destroy cancer cells.
• Shrink a tumour before surgery.
• Kill remaining cancer cells after surgery.
• Reduce symptoms like pain or bleeding.

Our team will clearly explain why radiation therapy is recommended in your case.

How Radiation Therapy Works

Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to destroy cancer cells while protecting the healthy tissues around them. Based on your condition, stage of cancer, and age, our expert carefully designs your treatment plan. To assess your current condition, we may recommend a few imaging tests, such as a CT scan or an MRI. These tests help our radiation oncologist determine the right dose and number of sessions for you.

Treatment usually takes place over several days or weeks. Each session is short and painless. Most patients can return home the same day. Some patients may feel tired during treatment, while others may notice mild skin changes or slight discomfort in the treated area. These effects are usually temporary and manageable.
