Musculoskeletal Oncology is a specialized field of cancer care focused on the diagnosis and treatment of tumours affecting the bones, muscles, joints, connective tissues and soft tissues. For patients across South Delhi, Dr. Charu Garg provides comprehensive musculoskeletal cancer care using advanced radiation therapy techniques and a multidisciplinary treatment approach.
With over 24+ years of experience in Radiation Oncology, she delivers personalized, evidence-based care designed to achieve effective tumour control while maintaining function and quality of life, consulting from her Saket-based practice at Max Healthcare.
Musculoskeletal Oncology is the branch of oncology that focuses on cancers involving the bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments and soft tissues. These tumours may be primary cancers that originate in the musculoskeletal system, or metastatic cancers that spread from other organs.
Treatment depends on the type, location, stage and size of the tumour, and may include radiation therapy, surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or a combination of treatments, with every plan personalized to help preserve mobility and quality of life for patients across South Delhi.
Includes primary bone cancers, soft tissue sarcomas, cartilage tumours, and metastatic lesions spreading to skeletal structures.
Personalized radiation strategies focus on limb-sparing protocols, targeted pain relief, and protecting adjacent neurovascular structures.
Symptoms vary depending on the tumour location but commonly include:
Dr. Charu Garg utilizes modern radiation technologies to deliver highly precise treatment for musculoskeletal tumours while preserving healthy bones, muscles, joints, nerves and surrounding tissues.
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy precisely targets musculoskeletal tumours while minimizing radiation exposure to healthy bones, muscles and nearby organs.
Image Guided Radiation Therapy uses advanced imaging before every treatment session to ensure highly accurate radiation delivery.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy delivers high-dose radiation with exceptional precision for selected bone and soft tissue tumours, including bone metastases.
RapidArc Therapy delivers radiation quickly and accurately through continuous beam rotation, improving treatment precision and patient comfort.
Tomotherapy combines CT-guided imaging with advanced radiation delivery, making it ideal for treating complex musculoskeletal tumours.
3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy shapes radiation beams to match the tumour, helping protect nearby healthy bones, muscles, nerves and other critical structures.
Certain factors may increase the risk of musculoskeletal cancers, including:
A comprehensive evaluation helps determine the type and extent of the tumour.
