Overview
Department of Radiation Oncology was inaugurated and initiated along with the oncology block by our Founding Chairman Late Dr M.S.Ramaiah back in 1998. A telecobalt unit, the ATC-C9 as well as the low dose rate(LDR) brachytherapy unit was installed and operational initially. The departments academic activities started in 2002 with the introduction of the post-graduate course.
In 2008, Ramaiah hospitals got into a collaborative understanding for oncology services with Health Care Global franchise with the installation of Siemens Linear accelerator system at the MSR-HCG Cancer center. The high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy system was installed and has been functional since 2014.
The department has had many upgrades & modifications since then and is today considered one of the premier destinations for comprehensive cancer care with an ethical & evidence-based approach.
