An all - comprehensive Model Hospital cum Research Institute Project....
A really challenging mission of BCRWC to oust Cancer from the society
with more sophisticated weapons. An ambitious venture of finally
300 plus bedded all-comprehensive ultra modern Cancer Hospital of
international standard, to be the first of its kind in the Eastern & North
Eastern Zone of India.
And as the very word NETAJI sparks off indomitable
fighting spirit in our mind, we hope, with co-operation and assistance
of all Noble Souls, ‘we shall overcome’ all the hurdles
on the way to our dream destination. Despite inclement weather
we are highly optimistic about the meaningful emergence of a clear
blue sky. |

| Cancer Scenario Today |
| Despite tremendous stride in the scientific world, the Killer disease Cancer is yet to be tamed. Unusual rise in cruel Cancer deaths is now a global issue. The demon Cancer is still hesitant to honour the internationally reputed oncologists. So there is no pause till today in the premature wastages of precious human lives. This tragic scenario in India, particularly in West Bengal and adjacent areas, is causing mounting worries in the minds of the stalwarts in the medical world. |

| A Step Forward |
The new Cancer hospital project which has been accorded due approval by the Apex Body of India will be a major step forward towards accelerating the speed of Cancer eradication programme specially in the Eastern & North Eastern zone of the country as there is no multi-modality Cancer complex under one roof in the region. The proposed sophisticated hospital will be a safe place for the Cancer patients. After the completion of the hospital the patients from the Eastern and North East Zone will get rid of going far away for receiving the latest treatments from the specialist oncologists.
There will be plenty of accommodations for the Cancer-stricken people below the poverty line. The proposed hospital will serve the common people in a much better way amidst a completely better environment.
Speciality of the Proposed Hospital - a combination of Care, Talent and technology will have all the latest medical facilities available in the leading Cancer hospitals in the world. The surgical instruments will also have a global standard. In general, it will save time and treasure of a vast area and its helpless population thrown into endless trouble ordinarily. |

TomoTherapy - A Revolutionary Concept - A star-like
Gift of Ultra-modern Medical Science
TomoTherapy’s new Cancer treatment system is a unique way to deliver radiation treatment for Cancer. It is the latest technology of delivering radiation with precise mechanism through Linear accelerator which moves in unison with multi-leaf collimator. It combines CT imaging and Treatment Planning system. It is a one step forward than conventional RT/ IMRT which takes longer time. This system reduces staff requirement which is a major cost constraint in Radiation Oncology.
