3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT) is an advanced form of external beam radiation therapy that delivers radiation precisely to the shape, size and location of a tumour. Using detailed three-dimensional imaging, radiation beams are carefully planned to match the exact contours of the cancer while reducing unnecessary exposure to nearby healthy tissues.
At Dr. Charu Garg's Radiation Oncology practice in South Delhi, 3D-CRT is used as part of a personalized treatment approach to achieve effective cancer control with greater precision and improved patient safety.
3D-CRT is a modern radiation treatment technique that uses CT, MRI, or PET imaging to create a detailed three-dimensional map of the tumour before treatment begins. Advanced treatment planning software enables the radiation oncology team to design multiple radiation beams that conform to the tumour from different angles.
Unlike conventional radiation therapy, which treats a broader area, 3D-CRT focuses the radiation dose more accurately on the tumour.
Protects surrounding healthy organs as much as possible, reducing radiation exposure to normal tissues.
Every cancer is different in terms of size, shape and location. Before treatment starts, detailed imaging scans are performed to understand the exact position of the tumour and nearby critical organs.
The radiation oncology team then creates a customized treatment plan that includes:
This individualized planning helps ensure that the prescribed radiation dose reaches the tumour while minimizing unnecessary radiation to surrounding healthy tissues.
3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT) is an advanced radiation treatment technique that precisely targets cancer while protecting surrounding healthy tissues. It offers improved treatment accuracy, enhanced patient safety, and better treatment outcomes for various types of cancer.
Book a ConsultationHighly accurate radiation delivery for maximum treatment effectiveness.
Protects nearby healthy tissues and vital organs from unnecessary radiation.
Personalized treatment plans designed specifically for every patient.
Well suited for tumours with irregular shapes and difficult locations.
Greater precision helps achieve better clinical treatment outcomes.
Reduces side effects and supports a more comfortable treatment journey.
3D-CRT is used across a wide range of cancers treated at Dr. Charu Garg’s South Delhi practice, including:
Dr. Charu Garg has over 25+ years of outstanding experience in Radiation Oncology and has treated patients with a wide range of cancers using advanced radiation technologies. Every patient receives an individualized treatment plan designed to achieve the best possible outcome while preserving quality of life.
Consulting from Max Smart Hospital and Max Saket East Block, both in Saket, her practice covers advanced multidisciplinary care. Patients from across South Delhi consult Dr. Garg at her Saket clinic to understand whether 3D-CRT is the right technique for their diagnosis.
No. Radiation treatment itself is painless. Patients do not feel the radiation during the treatment session.
Most appointments take approximately 15 to 30 minutes, although the actual radiation delivery usually lasts only a few minutes.
Yes. Compared with traditional two-dimensional radiation therapy, 3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy provides greater treatment accuracy and better protection of nearby healthy tissues through advanced three-dimensional treatment planning.
In most cases, no hospitalization is required. 3D-CRT is generally performed as an outpatient treatment, allowing patients to return home on the same day after each session.
Not every patient requires the same radiation technique. The suitability of 3D-CRT depends on the type, size, location and stage of the cancer. Dr. Charu Garg carefully evaluates each case and recommends the most appropriate treatment plan based on the patient’s individual condition.
Dr. Charu Garg offers 3D-CRT from Max Smart Hospital and Max Saket East Block, both in Saket, South Delhi, with appointments available online or by phone.
