India's Premier Cancer Centres Treat 200,000+ International Patients Annually with World-class Surgical Oncology, Targeted Radiation Therapy (CyberKnife, Proton Beam), Immunotherapy, and Bone Marrow Transplants — at 60-80% Less than Western Costs.
Oncology is the medical specialty focused on diagnosing, staging, and treating cancer across all organ systems. India's comprehensive cancer care includes surgical oncology (tumour removal, organ-preserving surgery), radiation therapy (IMRT, IGRT, SRS/SRT, CyberKnife, proton beam therapy), medical oncology (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy), haemato-oncology, and bone marrow/stem cell transplantation. India treats over 100,000 international cancer patients annually.
India's top cancer hospitals — Tata Memorial Hospital (Mumbai), Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute (Delhi), HCG Cancer Centre, Apollo Cancer Centre, Fortis Cancer Institute, and Max Cancer Centre — operate multi-disciplinary tumour boards where surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, pathologists, and radiologists collaborate on every case. These centres feature advanced molecular diagnostics labs, PET-CT and PET-MRI suites, digital pathology, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) for genomic profiling.
40+ NABH/JCI accredited cancer hospitals with surgical, medical, and radiation oncology under one roof.
Multidisciplinary teams review every case — oncologist, surgeon, radiologist, and pathologist collaborate on personalised treatment plans.
Bone marrow transplant from $15,000 vs $150,000+ in the USA. Chemotherapy cycles at 1/10th the Western cost.
CyberKnife, Proton Beam, PET-CT, genomic profiling, and immunotherapy drugs available at leading centres.
Many hospitals participate in international clinical trials, giving patients access to cutting-edge treatments.
Dedicated international patient departments, nutrition counselling, palliative care, and psychological support throughout treatment.
Any new, persistent, or growing lump or mass in the breast, neck, armpit, groin, abdomen, or anywhere on the body — the most common first sign of cancer requiring immediate biopsy and evaluation.
Losing more than 5-10% of body weight without dieting or increased exercise over 6-12 months — a common early warning sign of cancers of the pancreas, stomach, lung, or esophagus.
Chronic pain that doesn't resolve with treatment — bone pain, abdominal pain, persistent headaches, or chest pain that may indicate cancer spread or primary tumour growth.
New or changing moles, skin lesions that don't heal, unusual pigmentation changes, persistent itching, or skin thickening — potential signs of melanoma or other skin cancers.
Rectal bleeding, blood in stool (dark or bright red), blood in urine (hematuria), or coughing up blood — warning signs of colorectal, bladder, kidney, or lung cancer.
Extreme, persistent fatigue that doesn't improve with rest — especially when accompanied by other symptoms like night sweats, fever, or weight loss — may indicate blood cancers or solid tumours.
Progressive difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), feeling of food stuck in throat, persistent hoarseness, or chronic sore throat — possible signs of throat, esophageal, or thyroid cancer.
Elevated tumour markers (PSA, CA-125, CEA, AFP), abnormal blood counts (high WBC, low platelets), or elevated LDH suggesting leukaemia, lymphoma, or metastatic cancer.
