In American Oncology Institute, the team of Doctors are supported by an equally competent team consisting off well trained nurses, qualified dosimetrists, medical physicists and other support staff. Each nurse at our cancer treatment centre is certified in oncology nursing and have pursued intensive training beyond certification requirements.

Our expert team of physicists and dosimetrists ensure complete safety while performing the radiation therapies with highly sophisticated equipment and computers. Dosimetrists adequately supervise the treatment implementation by making necessary adaptations to ensure that the treatment plan is executed as designed.

The team of well qualified medical physicists ensure that all the technical aspects of radiotherapy delivery are effectively administered. These include quality assurance of equipment, delivering radiation, and efficacy of the radiation plans that define the patient’s treatment. Our cancer treatment planning is done in a centralized program centre under supervision and guidance of a team based out of the United States.

Precision in cancer care is largely dependent on the type of technology that is used for treating cancer. The most advanced machines in radiation therapy allow us to treat only the tumour tissues and sparing most of the normal tissues. We are equipped with the most advanced technology today available in India. Our TruebeamStx + Calypso combination can be used to give at most precise radiation therapy even for moving body parts. We are also equipped with advanced equipment’s such as 4D PET CT Imaging, Rapid Arc, MRI, Luminous Acupulse DUO laser, Digital Mammography and Brachy Therapy. At American Oncology Institute we also handle every aspect of the care process digitally to create the safest and most convenient and transparent experience for our patients.
