Dr. Gagan Saini’s Approach to Precision Radiation Therapy and Personalized Cancer Care

In the challenging journey of battling cancer, the bridge between advanced technology and clinical expertise is where true healing begins. For those seeking a premier radiation oncologist in Delhi NCR, Dr. Gagan Saini stands as a trusted name in cancer care, combining 25 years of profound experience with a commitment to precision and advanced radiation therapy for cancer care. Practising at the forefront of oncological innovation, Dr. Gagan Saini ensures that every patient receives a treatment plan as unique as their diagnosis, utilising the world’s most sophisticated linear accelerators to target the tumour with sub-millimetre accuracy. 

Who is Dr. Gagan Saini?

Dr. Gagan Saini is a highly distinguished Radiation Oncologist in Delhi NCR. After completing his education from AIIMS, New Delhi, which is one of the most prestigious institutes and obtaining a Diplomate of the National Board, he has spent over 25 years in his career. Detailed, oriented and with the philosophy of putting the patient first, he treats his patients.

Besides being an exceptional clinician, Dr. Saini has also authored several papers and is a renowned international speaker, thus his patients are the ultimate beneficiaries of the latest worldwide developments in cancer care. He is a specialist in:

  • Precision Medicine: Making cancer treatment fit the patient’s tumor profile.
  • Supportive Oncology: Helping the patients stay comfortable and healthy during their treatment period.
  • Complex Radiotherapy: We are specialists in the administration of ionizing radiation to neoplasms of the brain, head, neck, and lungs.

What is the Role of Precision and Advanced Radiation Therapy?

Conventionally, radiation therapy would often harm the healthy tissues around the tumor. However, the main point of Dr. Saini’s Precision and Advanced Radiation Therapy for Cancer Care is that he uses External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) to completely turn the situation around.

With a machine called a linear accelerator, extremely focused high-energy X-rays are targeted right at the tumor.

The Precision Workflow:

  • Tumor Mapping: Identifying the precise 3D location of the tumor.
  • Simulation & Imaging: Obtaining detailed images that help in directing the rays.
  • Customized Dosimetry: Determining the precise amount of radiation needed to kill cancer cells and, at the same time, protect nearby healthy tissue.

Advanced Techniques: IMRT and VMAT Explained

Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) is an advanced cancer treatment that has evolved to a high level. It combines 3D body scans with radiation from multiple angles to precisely target the tumor located inside the body. Dr. Saini deploys Volumetric Arc Therapy (VMAT), a form of IMRT delivered by the Trilogy Tx Linear Accelerator.

The main benefit of VMAT is that it saves vaping treatment time by only a few minutes and also lessens the integral dose to normal tissue to one-tenth of the traditional dose. Such a method can be used for therapies of solid tumors coming from the brain, head and neck, lungs, and gynecological areas very well.

Specialized Motion Management and Innovation

Dr. Gagan Saini’s methods are built around advanced procedures such as Stereotactic Body RT (SBRT) and Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS), which deliver powerful therapy in fewer sessions. For tumors that move with a patient’s breathing, he uses Motion, Guided RT, and Intrafraction Motion Tracking.

Other advanced technologies he uses include Surface-Guided RT (SGRT) and Adaptive RT (ART), which allow changing the treatment plan mid-therapy if the tumor keeps changing shape or size.

When dealing with the most convoluted cases, he delivers specially designed protocols such as Total Body Irradiation (TBI) and Total Skin Electron RT (TSET), thus leaving no stone unturned medically in his fight against cancer.
