What Is the Cost of IMRT in India?
The cost of IMRT in India typically ranges from $500 to $6,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.
Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) shapes radiation beams and varies the dose across the tumour. The cost depends on:
- Number of sessions: often daily on weekdays for several weeks.
- Cancer type and site
- Planning: CT scans, masks or moulds.
- Image guidance: IGRT checks before each session.
How IMRT Works
Cancer Research UK describes IMRT as a type of conformal radiotherapy that gives different doses to different parts of the treatment area. This helps protect nearby healthy tissue, which is useful for head and neck, prostate and brain cancers.

IMRT: Side Effects
The NHS lists tiredness, sore or darker skin, hair loss in the treated area and other site-specific effects. External radiotherapy does not make you radioactive. Most side effects settle after treatment ends.
Planning a Course in India
IMRT is given over several weeks, so plan a stay for the whole course. Ask whether planning scans, image guidance and follow-up are included.
