Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is an advanced radiation therapy technique that delivers highly focused, high-dose radiation to tumours located outside the brain with exceptional precision. This innovative treatment is designed to destroy cancer cells while minimizing radiation exposure to nearby healthy tissues and vital organs.
At Dr. Charu Garg’s Radiation Oncology practice in South Delhi, SBRT is used to provide personalized, evidence-based cancer treatment for patients with early-stage cancers, metastatic tumours and selected recurrent cancers. Every treatment plan is carefully customized to achieve the best possible clinical outcomes while preserving the patient’s quality of life.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is a highly specialized form of external beam radiation therapy that delivers very high doses of radiation to a tumour over a small number of treatment sessions.
Using advanced imaging, computerized treatment planning and precise patient positioning, SBRT accurately targets tumours with sub-millimeter precision.
Most SBRT treatments are completed in just one to five sessions, offering effective treatment with greater convenience and a shorter overall treatment duration compared with conventional radiation therapy.
Delivers highly focused radiation beams with extreme accuracy, maximizing tumor ablation while safeguarding adjacent critical organs.
Completed in just 1 to 5 short outpatient sessions, providing significant patient convenience over weeks-long conventional regimens.
Before treatment begins, a detailed planning process is carried out using CT Simulation and, when necessary, MRI or PET-CT imaging. These advanced imaging techniques help the radiation oncology team accurately identify the tumour while protecting surrounding healthy tissues and critical organs.
The treatment planning process accounts for:
Using advanced treatment planning software, highly focused radiation beams are delivered from multiple angles, allowing the tumour to receive a powerful dose while minimizing radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissues and critical organs for patients across South Delhi.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is an advanced radiation treatment that delivers high-dose radiation with exceptional precision. It provides excellent tumour control while minimizing radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissues, resulting in fewer treatment sessions and improved patient comfort.
Targets tumours with exceptional accuracy while protecting surrounding healthy tissues.
Delivers powerful radiation doses with outstanding precision for effective tumour control.
Most SBRT treatments are completed in just one to five sessions.
Provides effective cancer treatment without the need for surgery or hospitalization.
Treatment is delivered without cuts, stitches, or invasive surgical procedures.
Advanced planning minimizes radiation exposure to nearby healthy organs.
Precise radiation delivery helps lower the risk of side effects and complications.
Completes treatment much faster than conventional radiation therapy schedules.
Short treatment courses allow patients to return to normal daily activities more quickly.
Dr. Charu Garg’s South Delhi practice uses SBRT to treat targeted primary and metastatic disease across multiple organ sites:
Dr. Charu Garg is a highly experienced Radiation Oncologist with more than 25 years of expertise in advanced radiation therapy. She specializes in modern radiation techniques and delivers personalized, evidence-based cancer treatment using the latest technology to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Consulting from Max Smart Hospital and Max Saket East Block, both in Saket, patients from across South Delhi consult Dr. Garg at her Saket clinic to understand whether SBRT is the right treatment option for their tumour.
No. SBRT is completely painless. Patients do not feel the radiation during treatment.
Most SBRT treatments are completed within 1 to 5 sessions, depending on the type and location of the tumour.
For selected cancers, SBRT delivers a higher dose of radiation with greater precision over fewer treatment sessions while reducing exposure to healthy tissues.
For some patients who are not suitable candidates for surgery or have small localized tumours, SBRT can be an effective treatment option. The most appropriate treatment depends on an individual clinical evaluation.
Most patients tolerate SBRT well. Side effects vary depending on the treatment area and are usually temporary. Your radiation oncologist will discuss possible side effects before treatment begins.
