How is cancer treated in India?

Cancer is treated with surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy — often in combination. AIIMS, Tata Memorial, and Apollo Cancer Centres offer world-class care.

What is targeted therapy?

Targeted therapy uses drugs that specifically attack cancer cell proteins or genes without harming normal cells as much as chemotherapy does.

When should I get cancer screening?

Women: Pap smear from 21, mammogram from 40. Men: PSA test from 50. Everyone: Colonoscopy from 45. Earlier if family history exists.
