Cancer refers to any one of a large number of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that divide uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissue. Cancer also has the ability to spread throughout your body.
Cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the United States. But survival rates are improving for many types of cancer, thanks to improvements in cancer screening and cancer treatment.

Latest advances in cancer treatment in India
Targeted treatment:
Various cellular pathways, often specific to the type of cancer, allow cancer cells to become immortal, acquire blood supply, divide in an uncontrolled manner and spread, leading to accumulation of large numbers of abnormal cancer cells. Targeted treatments are designed to disrupt these pathways, thus interfering with the cancerous characteristics of these cells.
targeted therapies have lead to dramatic improvements in the life span of breast cancer and lung cancer patients
Stereotactic Ablative Radiosurgery:
Radiotherapy, i.e. the use of x-rays to kill cancer cells has seen dramatic improvements in radiation delivery machines, linear accelerators as well as in computer software. This has led to great precision in the delivery of radiotherapy to tumours and avoidance of the same in neighboring normal structures.
This ability has been harnessed very effectively to give very large focused doses of radiation in one to five fractions to destroy early stage lung cancer. This technique which is also called Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) results in excellent cure rates in early stage lung cancer patients who are unable to undergo surgery and is under investigation as the first option for
lung cancer patients.
This treatment technique is also a possibility of cure in patients with limited spread from breast cancer, large intestine cancer, kidney cancer and others.
Robotic Surgery for Prostate Cancer:
Robotic surgery marries the benefits of laparoscopy i.e. surgery using scopes rather than large incisions to reach the surgical field, highly manoeuvrable surgical instruments and magnification to the tune of 40 times normal vison, to allow the surgeon to effectively perform surgery in the narrow male pelvis. This is rapidly becoming the preferred approach in carefully selected patients. Image Guided Radiotherapy is the treatment of choice in advanced patients not fit to undergo surgery for prostate cancer.
