Medical Oncology at ILS Hospitals

Medical oncology is a branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cancer using chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and other medications. Medical oncologists play a central role in cancer care, coordinating treatments to ensure the best possible outcome for each patient. Their primary goal is to treat cancer using drugs that target cancer cells, while also focusing on managing side effects and improving the patient’s quality of life.

Treatments Offered by Medical Oncology at ILS Hospital

1. Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy uses powerful drugs to kill or slow the growth of cancer cells. At ILS Hospital, our medical oncologists carefully select chemotherapy regimens based on the type of cancer and the individual’s health. We also provide supportive care to help manage the side effects of chemotherapy, ensuring a more comfortable experience.
2. Targeted Therapy: This innovative treatment focuses on specific molecular targets that contribute to cancer growth. Targeted therapies are less harmful to healthy cells and often have fewer side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy. Our oncologists offer targeted therapy as part of a personalized treatment plan.
3. Immunotherapy: Immunotherapy works by stimulating the body’s immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. It has shown promising results in treating certain types of cancers, such as melanoma, lung cancer, and lymphomas. At ILS Hospital, we provide access to the latest immunotherapies, offering new hope for many patients.
4. Hormone Therapy: Certain cancers, like breast and prostate cancer, are hormone-sensitive. Hormone therapy works by blocking the hormones that fuel these cancers. Our specialists carefully tailor hormone treatments to suit the specific needs of each patient.
5. Palliative and Supportive Care: Beyond direct cancer treatment, we offer palliative care to help manage symptoms, pain, and other physical and emotional challenges that patients may face during treatment. Our holistic approach ensures that patients receive the necessary emotional, nutritional, and psychological support.

PCT CT Scan: Advanced Imaging for Precision Diagnosis

Perfusion Computed Tomography (PCT) CT scan is a cutting-edge imaging technique used to assess blood flow in tissues, especially the brain. It helps in detecting conditions like strokes, tumors, and blood circulation issues. This non-invasive scan delivers real-time, detailed images, enabling doctors to evaluate tissue health and plan accurate treatments.

PCT CT scans are vital in emergency situations, providing rapid and reliable results for quick medical intervention. They are especially beneficial in stroke diagnosis, helping identify the affected areas and guiding targeted therapies. With advanced technology and skilled radiologists, PCT CT scans ensure accurate diagnostics and better patient outcomes.
