Dr. Sayan Paul, Experienced oncologist in kolkata - SBRT/SABR


Stereotactic radiosurgery or SRS is a form of radiotherapy. When it is done on the patient’s body rather than his brain, the procedure is termed stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) or stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).

Dr. Sayan Paul, Experienced oncologist in kolkata and his team of cancer specialists in Kolkata perform this procedure using precisely-focused radiation beams and targeting them toward tumours. SBRT can be used for treating tumors in the lungs, liver, neck, spine, or soft tissues.

Since there is no incision, SBRT is not like any typical open surgery. It involves 3D imaging for targeting high doses of radiation to the area that has been affected. This means there is significantly less damage to the healthy tissue. Dr. Paul, considered one of the best lung SBRT specialists in India explains that stereotactic radiosurgery works like other forms of radiation therapy by damaging the DNA of targeted cells. This prevents the affected cells from reproducing, causing the tumours to shrink.
