Radiosurgery in India: The Forerunners Healthcare group is assisting in low-cost radiosurgery in India. India is promoting "medical outsourcing" where sub-contractors aim to provide services to the over-burdened medical- care systems in western countries. Radiosurgery seems to be the preferred treatment for foreign nationals who cannot afford expensive treatment or those who don't have a medical insurance. Radiosurgery in India is conducted in cities like Mumbai and Delhi which possess some of the finest hospitals with the latest methods in the area of surgery. The surgery costs in India are low as compared to other countries.

The Radiosurgery Procedure: Radiosurgery is a highly precise form of radiation therapy used primarily to treat tumors and other abnormalities of the brain. The treatment involves the delivery of a single high-dose -- or sometimes smaller, multiple doses -- of radiation beams that converge on the specific area of the brain where the tumor or other abnormality resides. Using a helmet-like device that keeps the head completely still and three-dimensional computer-aided planning software, radiosurgery minimizes the amount of radiation to healthy brain tissue.

Why India: India, which is one of the most sought-after medical tourism destinations in the world, has patients from over 60 countries getting radiosurgery done in various hospitals at Delhi and Mumbai. Reasons varying from lower cost of radiosurgery in India and shorter waiting periods for surgeries are cited as reasons for India becoming a hot destination for health tourists. Radiosurgery in India offers remarkable cost-savings. The savings are a function of where you travel for surgery. India is currently one of the lowest-priced destinations for radiosurgery in the world. With the cost-savings you can visit the various exotic tourist locations. India is a heritage country with many things to explore, hence most of the international patients choose India for their treatment so that they can visit the famous tourist places after their surgery for their recuperation and relaxation.
