Overview
- Banas Medical College & Research Institute (BMCRI), Palanpur, established recently (2018) under a Public-Private Partnership model, offers a range of MD clinical and para-clinical specialities under the norms of the National Medical Commission.
- The MD Radiation Oncology programme trains students in cancer therapy using radiation, including both external beam therapies (like linear accelerators), brachytherapy (if available), radiation physics and biology, patient safety, side effect management, and integration with other cancer treatment modalities.
BMCRI has been approved to offer Radiotherapy / Radiation Oncology with 3 seats per year for this specialty. - The program involves theoretical teaching, clinical practicums, work in radiotherapy treatment planning, dosimetry, patient monitoring, and likely a thesis or research component, following the standard PG medical curriculum.
- Students would get exposure through the attached teaching hospital and cancer treatment facility tied with BMCRI. Infrastructure, machine availability (linear accelerators, treatment planning systems etc.) are key; the college must maintain adequate equipment to run this speciality properly. (Specific equipment details not found in the public sources.)
