Rancan Gamma Knife Centre

(First of its kind in the SAARC region in a dedicated Neurosciences Centre)

NMC, through its sister concern (Rancan Impex (P) Ltd.) Has done proud to the country by setting up the first Leksell Gamma Knife in a dedicated neurosciences centre -VIMHANS at New Delhi in 1998.

The Leksell Gamma Knife is a revolutionary equipment and is considered as GOLD STANDARD in the field of bloodless and painless neurosurgery. The Gamma Knife is used for treatment of Arteriovenous Malformations of the brain (AVM s), benign and malignant tumours like Meningiomas, Acoustic Neurinomas, Pineal region tumours, Gliomas, Pituitary Adenomas and Metastatic tumours as well as functional disorders like Trigeminal Neuralgia, Intractable Pain, Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Disease. It can also be used as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of residual and recurrent lesions left unresected by Conventional Neurosurgery. It can be especially useful to those patients who are not suitable for standard surgical technique due to illness or advanced age. In many neurosurgical cases Gamma Knife Radiosurgery is the only feasible modality. The benefit to the patient is that they can return to their normal lifestyle immediately following treatment.

The medical team headed by Dr.(Prof.) A.K. Banerji, ex-chief, department of Neurosciences, AIIMS, New Delhi, is currently the best Gamma Knife Team in India. The team also includes Dr. V.P. Singh (Ex-AIIMS), Dr. M.S. Gaur, Dr. J. Misra, who have a collective experience of performing over 2500 successful Gamma Knife surgeries in India, Japan and USA. Since inception, the Centre has already treated close to 1000 patients at a success rate comparable to international standards.

The Centre is one of its kind in whole of the SAARC region and is getting patients not only from India but also from the neighbouring, middle east, CIS and many other foreign countries for Gamma Knife treatment. The Centre has distinguished itself as the only Centre in India to provide:-

>>Treatment for paediatric age group patients
