CyberKnife

The technique is simple and effective than many other invasive methods. Method is efficacious to eradicate malignancies significantly minute in size, up to 0.5 mm.

Versa HD Technique

This technique was developed recently, and now introduced to the world as a safe method. The new procedure applies to young children because of fewer side effects on the body's healthy cells.

 IMRT

It is a common technique for treating liver, prostate, lung, neck, and brain cancer. The technique is also safe for all age groups.

Intraoperative radiotherapy technique

The Procedure is used to remove those tumor cells hard to access surgically. The technique has a straightforward approach to malignant cancerous cells; the process is speedy.

Targeted Therapy

The radio oncologists in Medicana hospital have introduced a new method for the removal of tumors inside the body, particularly for visceral organs. The surgeons place a radiotracer near the target site, and the radioisotope periodically releases radiations that ultimately kill tumors. The oncologists observe the progress using PET-CT, and as soon as the tumors are killed, they take out the tracer so that no healthy cells get damaged in the process.

Radiosurgery

It is an advanced surgery that is different from the conventional surgeries because the clinic uses robotic devices to perform the surgery. In Medicana hospital, surgeons usually prefer robot-assisted surgeries because of their efficacy and success. The surgeons assist the surgery, and all the steps are completed automatically. The precision is high as they thoroughly monitor the steps. Apart from that the robotic-assisted surgery prevents the recurrence of disease and gives positive outcomes.

Prostatectomy

Medicana hospital offers minimally invasive surgery for the removal of tumors in the prostate. The surgeons either perform a partial prostatectomy or go for a complete prostatectomy. The method works for patients in their initial stage of prostate cancer.

Lumpectomy

Medicana hospital has highly trained surgeons specialized in performing breast cancer. They treat the patients after examining their situation. In the case of localized tumors, they perform lumpectomy, but if the tumor is in the entire area, then they switch to the mastectomy. Both the procedures are safe and have positive outcomes.

Bone marrow transplant

It is the only method that can completely eradicate diseases. The Medicanna hospital has qualified staff designated for bone marrow transplants. They perform HLA and gene testing before performing the surgery to minimize the tissue rejection. The donor is usually preferred by the family, but in case of emergency, an unrelated donor is also accepted.

The cardiology department is well organized with improved infrastructure. However, the focus is on the complex cases that are increasing the mortality rate in the world. The unit focuses on modern treatment procedures rather than sticking to old ones, which have a high failure rate. There are many cases of infants born with cardiac irregularities, and the ratio is increasing day by day. Furthermore, the gamma camera is for the detection of abnormalities, and it works within seconds. The cardiology unit has a maximum success ratio in such complex cases. The Unit performs the following unique techniques:
