Treatment Approach

We, at HCG Cancer Centre, Borivali, believe in delivering cancer care that is value-based and patient-centric.

The multidisciplinary treatment approach helps our specialists devise a customised treatment plan for our patients based on their cancer type, stage and their overall condition. In other words, the treatment given will be specific to that patient rather than to that specific cancer type.

The multidisciplinary team comprises trained and highly skilled surgical, radiation & medical oncologists along with experts in pain management to cater to the needs of our patients. This core team is supported by a qualified and trained team of doctors, dietitians, physiotherapists & psycho-oncologists who are trained to provide round the clock support to patients.

This personalised approach will have a positive impact on the treatment response and recovery among patients.

Diagnostic Services at HCG Cancer Centre, Borivali

The high-end diagnostic technology that we use at our hospital helps us understand various types of cancers and other diseases and achieve the right diagnosis.

PET-CT: PET-CT is a non-invasive and painless procedure that combines the structural data from the CT along with the metabolic activity data from the PET imaging. PET-CT has a role in various stages of cancer management namely diagnosis, treatment planning, restaging, treatment monitoring and relapse evaluation.

Mammography: Mammography is considered to be one of the most effective methods used for breast cancer detection. It is a simple procedure that uses low-dose X-ray beams on each breast to look for benign or malignant tumours or any other abnormalities.

X-ray: X-rays help find any structural abnormalities within the body and are used in the detection of tumours in bones and other organs like lungs, stomach and kidneys.

Colour Doppler Sonography: It is an ultrasound procedure, which assesses the blood flow within the vessels to detect tumour growth. It is an extremely useful diagnostic method that helps specialists differentiate between benign nodules and malignant ones.

We also have an in-house laboratory for pathology, histopathology tests, etc., which will help us deliver timely and accurate reports to our patients.
