A: Medanta The Medicity uses Varian True Beam linear accelerators capable of IMRT (intensity-modulated), IGRT (image-guided), VMAT (volumetric arc), SBRT (stereotactic body), and SRS (stereotactic radiosurgery). This represents the same generation of technology available at leading cancer centres in the USA and Europe.
A: A full radiation therapy course (25 to 35 fractions) at Medanta costs approximately $2,500 to $5,500 USD depending on the technique used, tumour site, and number of fractions. Advanced SBRT or SRS treatments for brain or lung lesions cost $3,000 to $6,000 for a complete 3 to 5 fraction course.
A: For standard radiation courses (5 days/week for 5-7 weeks), patients need to be in India for the duration. However, for SBRT or SRS treatments (typically 3 to 5 sessions over 1 to 2 weeks), patients can complete treatment in a single visit without extended stay.
A: Modern radiation techniques at Medanta, including IGRT and VMAT, use real-time imaging during each fraction to ensure radiation is delivered precisely to the tumour while minimising dose to surrounding healthy tissue. This represents a significant advancement over conventional radiation and dramatically reduces side effects.
A: Second opinions in radiation oncology are strongly recommended, particularly for complex cases or when the recommended treatment plan does not include IMRT or IGRT.
