In this interview by Dr. P. S. Choudhury, Director of Nuclear Medicine at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Centre (RGCIRC), highlights the transformative role of nuclear medicine in cancer care. From functional imaging through PET CT scans to advanced therapies like Theranostics, nuclear medicine is revolutionizing diagnosis and treatment. It effectively targets tumours, assesses treatment responses, and minimizes toxic effects. While traditionally used for thyroid and neuroendocrine tumours, it is expanding to other cancers. Despite perceived costs, it is cost-effective long-term, offering precision, fewer side effects, and improved quality of life. Nuclear medicine stands as a beacon of hope in modern oncology.
As a society, RGCIRC is looking forward to get support from generous people
