Frequently Asked Questions

What is lung cancer, and how common is it in India?

Lung cancer starts in the lungs and ranks among the top causes of cancer deaths worldwide. India sees a high occurrence due to widespread smoking and air pollution. This disease affects both genders, with older people at higher risk. Catching it boosts survival chances.

What are the treatment options in hospitals for lung cancer in India?

Doctors can treat lung cancer through operations, medications, radiation, targeted methods, and immune system boosters. The approach depends on the type of cancer (small or non-small cell) and its stage of progression. Large hospitals offer less invasive surgeries, such as VATS.

How is lung cancer diagnosed in India?

To find lung cancer, doctors use CT scans, PET-CT scans to look inside the lungs, and take tissue samples. They also check blood and look for specific markers. Top hospitals in India utilise computer programs and 3D images to aid in diagnosis. Results are typically available within two to three days.

What are the cutting-edge medical treatments used in India?

Doctors use robot-aided operations, CyberKnife systems, and radiation therapy that can adjust its intensity. Patients can get drugs that target specific genes after DNA tests. A few medical centres provide proton beam therapy and look at molecules to plan care. High-tech scans enable the creation of customised treatment strategies for each individual.

Can I select my physician or oncologist in India?

Yes, you can filter by speciality, years of experience, and language. Whether you’re looking for a nurse or doctor, many hospitals let you choose based on their provider bios. Others provide video consults before your trip. Interpreter services are included as well. Medigence guides you through the entire process to ensure the best treatment.

How is chemotherapy administered for lung cancer?

It’s given through IV infusion in cycles over several weeks. Medications vary depending on the type of cancer and the individual's genetic profile. The patient is usually treated as an outpatient.

How quickly can treatment begin after diagnosis?

Treatment typically begins within 7 to 10 days after diagnosis. To prevent the spread of cancer, hospitals work to prioritise patients with cancer for intervention as quickly as possible. Remember, emergency cases are fast-tracked. Expect to leave with a complete functional medicine treatment plan at your initial visit.

Are second opinions accessible for lung cancer in India?

Yes, almost all hospitals accept second opinions. Oncology teams—often including other specialists, nurses, social workers, and support staff—carefully review each medical record and every scan. Online consultations are also available to international patients. Several of these centres now offer free second opinion services. Medigence provides a second opinion and teleconsultation through its platform.

What is the recovery period after lung cancer surgery?

Typically, patients are in the hospital for 5–7 days. The time required for complete recovery can range from 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the procedure and the individual's overall health. Pain management plays a key role in improving postoperative respiratory function. Indian hospitals offer free post-op rehab and physiotherapy.

Is the Indian oncologist sufficiently trained for lung cancer treatment?

Yes, almost all come with international training and certifications. They adhere to international guidelines (NCCN, ESMO). Most of them speak English, and all of them attend international conferences. These profiles and specialities are typically made prominently available through individual hospital websites.
