Pancreatic Cancer Treatment in Ahmedabad: Comprehensive Care by Dr Kaushal Anand
What is Pancreatic Cancer?
Pancreatic cancer is often termed a “silent killer,” as it frequently goes undetected until it has advanced to later stages. Pancreatic cancer begins in the tissues of the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach.
It often goes undetected until advanced, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial. Early detection and intervention are essential to improve survival rates. It helps to get awareness of symptoms and treatment options necessary for patients and families.
How We Diagnose Pancreatic Cancer?
Comprehensive Medical History and Physical Examination
Understanding your symptoms and medical background is vital.
Imaging Tests
We employ state-of-the-art imaging technologies such as CT, MRI, and PET scans to visualize the pancreas and detect tumours.
Biopsy
In some instances, we may perform a fine-needle aspiration biopsy to collect tissue samples for analysis, confirming the presence of cancer cells.
Kaushal Anand offers Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Treatments
Whipple Procedure (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)
Removes the head of the pancreas, part of the bile duct, gallbladder, and small intestine.
Distal Pancreatectomy
Involves the removal of the body and tail of the pancreas.
Total Pancreatectomy
Complete pancreas removal is often used in cases where cancer has spread extensively within the organ.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
We offer laparoscopic options to reduce recovery time in some instances.
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy
We offer tailored chemotherapy regimens designed to shrink tumours and improve symptoms for patients whose tumours are not amenable to surgery.
Radiotherapy
Radiation therapy may also target cancer cells and alleviate discomfort.
