Lung Cancer Treatment Hospital in Bhopal

What Is Lung Cancer?

Lung cancer starts when the cells inside the lungs begin to grow in an abnormal and uncontrolled way. Over time, these cells may form a tumour and can spread to nearby structures or other organs. Early-stage lung cancer is often easier to treat. Late-stage disease needs more complex and combined treatments.

Types of Lung Cancer

• Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): The most common type; usually grows more slowly.
• Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC): Less common but tends to grow and spread faster.

Common Symptoms of Lung Cancer

• Cough that does not go away or gets worse over time
• Coughing up blood or blood-streaked sputum
• Chest pain, especially when breathing or coughing
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Wheezing or noisy breathing
• Unexplained weight loss and loss of appetite
• Constant tiredness or weakness

Main Causes and Risk Factors (Bhopal & Madhya Pradesh)

• Smoking (cigarettes, beedis) – main risk factor
• Passive smoking (regular second-hand smoke exposure)
• Exposure to industrial fumes, dust, asbestos or chemicals
• Indoor air pollution and biomass smoke
• Family history of lung cancer
• Previous chest radiation or lung disease

How Fuda Diagnoses Lung Cancer for Bhopal Patients

Many tests can be done in Bhopal or nearby cities. Fuda and Rekosh then review the results and guide the next steps:

• Chest X-ray: First basic test that may show a mass or shadow.
• CT scan of chest: Gives detailed images of lung nodules and lymph nodes.
• PET-CT scan: Helps see active cancer areas and possible spread to other organs.
• Bronchoscopy: A thin tube passed into the airways to see the tumour and take samples.
• Biopsy (needle / bronchoscopic / surgical): Tissue sample is taken and tested to confirm cancer type.
• Molecular testing: Checks for gene changes (EGFR, ALK, etc.) to plan targeted or immunotherapy.

Advanced Lung Cancer Treatments Available Through Fuda

Fuda focuses on treatments that aim to control cancer and improve quality of life. Options may be used alone or in combination depending on the stage and patient’s condition:

• Minimally Invasive Ablation (Cryo / Thermal): Special needles are guided into the lung tumour to freeze or heat and destroy cancer cells. Useful for selected patients who cannot have major surgery.
• NanoKnife IRE (Irreversible Electroporation): In selected cases, controlled electrical pulses are used to kill tumour cells while trying to protect nearby critical structures.
• Surgery (Lobectomy / Segmentectomy): For early-stage disease, removal of part of the lung by thoracic surgeons.
• Radiation Therapy / Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SBRT): Focused radiation to control local tumours, especially when surgery is not possible.
• Chemotherapy: Cancer-killing drugs given by vein or tablet, often used for advanced stages.
• Targeted Therapy: Tablets or injections that attack specific gene changes (e.g., EGFR, ALK, ROS1) when present.
• Immunotherapy: Medicines that help the body’s immune system recognise and attack cancer cells.
• Palliative and Supportive Care: Symptom control (breathlessness, cough, pain) to improve comfort and daily life.
