CHANDIGARH, 12.09.25-At PGIMER, Chandigarh, a team of doctors, Dr. Sushant Kumar Sahoo, Dr. Renu Madan, Dr. Narender Kumar, Dr.Dhandapani SS, and Dr. Chirag Ahuja, have successfully treated over 2000 cases of brain diseases with Gamma Knife Radiosurgery. This noninvasive technique employs a single high-dose radiation precisely delivered using 3D stereotaxy to destroy abnormalities without incision. Gamma Knife radiosurgery is possible even for the skull base tumors such as meningiomas, CP angle tumors, and chordomas located very deep, close to critical blood vessels and nerves.
Dr Sushant’s team has also published several innovative techniques and formulated newer protocols using the Gamma Knife. Several brain tumors previously thought to be difficult to treat are successfully being managed by their team at PGIMER, Gamma Knife Centre. They cater not just to patients from the entire north India but also to faraway states such as Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka due to the shorter waiting list and the affordable price set by the government.
