The centre is also equipped to perform complex oncological surgeries for various cancers, supported by advanced operation theatre infrastructure and specialized surgical teams.

Rajasundaram, CEO, Iswarya Hospital, said “Cancer continues to be one of the most significant health challenges in India today. According to the Indian Council of Medical Research and the National Cancer Registry Programme, new cancer cases are projected to rise to around 15.7 lakh cases by 2025, with breast, lung, and oral cancers remaining among the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the country. Breast cancer alone is expected to account for more than two lakh new cases annually, making it the leading cancer among Indian women.” One of the biggest challenges we face is late diagnosis, which significantly reduces survival outcomes. The introduction of AI-powered PET-CT technology and high-precision radiotherapy at the Iswarya Cancer Centre allows us to detect disease earlier, assess its spread more accurately, and guide treatment decisions with greater confidence. Added Dr S Rajasundaram Dr. Arun Muthuvel, Managing Director, Iswarya Hospital, said “At Iswarya, our focus has always been on combining advanced technology with compassionate care. The launch of the Iswarya Cancer Centre represents a major milestone in expanding our oncology services. By bringing together expert specialists, complex cancer surgery capabilities, advanced imaging technologies, immunotherapy, and integrated treatment facilities under one roof, we aim to deliver comprehensive cancer care that patients can trust. Early detection and timely treatment are critical to improving outcomes.” The AI-powered PET-CT scan available at the centre enhances diagnostic accuracy by combining advanced imaging with artificial intelligence-driven analysis. This enables clinicians to detect cancer earlier, monitor treatment response more effectively, and design highly personalized treatment plans for patients. With the launch of the Iswarya Cancer Centre in OMR Taramani, the hospital strengthens its mission of delivering timely diagnosis, advanced treatment, complex cancer surgeries, high-precision radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and multidisciplinary cancer care for patients across Chennai and beyond under one roof.
