Oncology (Radiation)

Radiation oncology is a medical specialty that involves the controlled use of radiation beams to treat cancer either for cure, or to reduce pain and other symptoms caused by cancer. Radiation therapy or radiotherapy is the term used to describe actual treatment delivered by the radiation oncology team. An important tool for treating cancer, it is often used in conjunction with other therapies, such as chemotherapy. Radiation is targeted only to specific points in your body during treatment to minimize its side effects. It can be utilized during different stages of cancer treatment and may be paired in conjunction with another form of treatment. It may be used to alleviate symptoms in advanced, late-stage cancer too.

Infectious diseases are disorders caused by organisms — such as bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. Many organisms that live in and on our bodies are normally harmless and may even be helpful. But under certain conditions, some organisms may cause disease.
Some infectious diseases are passed from person to person. Some are transmitted by insects or other animals. And you may get others by consuming contaminated food or water or being exposed to organisms in the environment.
Signs and symptoms vary depending on the organism causing the infection, but often include fever and fatigue. Mild infections may respond to rest and home remedies, while some life-threatening infections may need hospitalization.

Head & Neck Surgery

/

Head & neck surgery is a subspecialty surgical discipline dealing with both benign lumps and cancers found in the upper aerodigestive tract, including skin lumps in the head and neck region. Cancerous lumps and skin malignancies usually require surgery; oftentimes even the lumps that are benign; as they can potentially turn cancerous or cause compression on the vital structures in the upper aerodigestive tract. Ablative surgery carefully done to ensure good clearance of the cancer may have to be accompanied by reliable reconstructive surgery to ensure good recovery of form and function for the patient. As the head and neck region is responsible for form and many functions (swallowing, speech, breathing, etc), surgery in this area can be challenging.

Vascular surgery is a surgical subspecialty in which diseases of the vascular system, or arteries, veins and lymphatic circulation, are man-aged by medical therapy, minimally-invasive catheter procedures, and surgical reconstruc-tion. Vascular disease is caused by inflammation and weakness of the veins and arteries; and by the build up of fatty deposits in the blood vessels Often life-saving procedures are unexpectedly needed during a surgery. Surgery is performed to clear blockages in the blood system to pre-vent strokes and aneurysms; usually due to ageing and degeneration. Other reasons for surgery include injury and trauma, conditions like cancer, and diabetes. Angioplasty and stents placement are two ways to open blocked peripheral arteries.
