Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment: AI-Powered Breakthrough at TGH-Onco Life Cancer Centre 

The doctors of TGH-Onco Life Cancer Centre, Pune, revealed that they used an advanced Radixact system with an AI (Artificial Intelligence) based synchrony automatic real-time motion synchronization technology to treat cancers of lung, liver, gastrointestinal, and prostate with better outcomes. This approach was used to treat two patients – a 70-year-old man with Grade 4 lung cancer and a 62-year-old man who had prostate cancer.  

70-year-old, Anantrao Raikar from Talegaon said that he sought help from multiple doctors after he started suffering from breathlessness while doing his daily activities. After multiple scans, he was diagnosed with lung carcinoma which progressed even during his chemotherapy. 

Meanwhile, Nanasao Ingawale, 60 years old from Sholapur was diagnosed with prostate cancer. 

Both patients were treated using a synchrony-based approach for successful outcomes, said Dr Abhishek Purkayastha, consultant, department of TomoTherapy and radiation oncology, TGH Onco-Life Cancer Centre. 

Raikar was treated using SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy) utilizing a TomoTherapy helical technique with an AI-based synchrony system. The tracking system adjusts the radiation beam according to any changes in the tumor’s position caused by the patient’s movement, thus sparing the critical organs at risk. He was treated very well without inflicting any adverse effects.  

Ingawale’s treatment was done using the technique of synchrony-based IGRT that combines real-time imaging with precise radiation delivery, ensuring the safe and quick recovery of the patient.  

Such advanced technology can be used to create customized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs thus revolutionizing cancer treatment.
