Professor & Head – Radiation Oncology

Dr. Bhaskar Viswanathan is a distinguished Radiation Oncologist with over 27 years of clinical and research excellence. He is recognized as a visionary in the field, credited with inventing robotic image-guided brachytherapy systems and pioneering the use of nanotechnology in cancer treatment. Currently leading the department at Amrita Hospital, Faridabad, he specializes in high-precision, individualized radiation protocols that maximize tumor destruction while preserving healthy tissue.

Dr. Bhaskar Viswanathan is celebrated for bridging the gap between clinical oncology and advanced bio-engineering. His career is marked by a pursuit of “Zero-Error” radiation delivery.

  • Robotic Innovation: Dr. Viswanathan has the rare distinction of having invented a Robotic Image-Guided Brachytherapy system specifically for treating liver (hepatic) tumors. This technology allows for internal radiation to be delivered with unprecedented accuracy.
  • Nanotechnology Researcher: He has led multi-million rupee projects funded by the ICMR and DEITY (Govt. of India) to develop magnetic nanoparticles for cancer hyperthermia. This “New Age” treatment uses iron oxide particles to heat and destroy cancer cells from within.
  • Global Academic Pedigree: His journey includes elite training at Tata Memorial Hospital (Mumbai) and a prestigious Clinical Fellowship at the Juravinski Cancer Centre (Canada), ensuring his practice aligns with the highest international safety standards.
  • Award-Winning Excellence: He is a frequent recipient of “Best Paper” awards at international congresses, particularly for his groundbreaking work on radiation sensitizers and MRI-guided planning.

Dr. Viswanathan specializes in treating complex, locally advanced, and recurrent cancers using adaptive and robotic-assisted radiation.

Conditions & Diseases Treated:

  • Gynaecological Cancers: Cervical, Uterine, and Ovarian malignancies.
  • Head & Neck Cancers: Oral cavity, Throat, and Thyroid tumors.
  • Prostate Cancer: Advanced and localized management.
  • Breast Cancer: Utilizing the DIBH (Deep Inspiration Breath Hold) technique to protect the heart.
  • Hepatic (Liver) Tumors: Targeted internal radiation.
  • Recurrent Cancers: Re-irradiation strategies for previously treated areas.

Specialized Procedures:

  • Robotic & Image-Guided Brachytherapy: Performing over 3,000+ high-precision internal radiation procedures.
  • Intra-operative MRI-Guided Brachytherapy: Real-time imaging during surgery for perfect radiation placement.
  • Adaptive Radiotherapy: Adjusting the radiation dose in real-time as the tumor shrinks or moves.
  • VMAT & IGRT: High-speed, high-precision external beam radiation.
  • SBRT & SRS: “Knife-less” robotic surgery for brain and body tumors.
  • Hyperthermia Therapy: Combining heat with radiation to enhance treatment efficacy.
  • Professor & Head: Radiation Oncology, Amrita Hospital, Faridabad (Present).
  • Professor: Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Bengaluru (2008–2022).
  • Assistant Professor: Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology, Bengaluru (1999–2006).
  • Expert Consultant: PRSG Committee (DEITY), Government of India, overseeing cancer nanotechnology research at IIT Mumbai.
  • MBBS: National College, Bengaluru.
  • MD (Radiation Oncology): Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology, Bengaluru (1997).
  • Clinical Research Project: Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai (1998).
  • Clinical Fellowship: Juravinski Cancer Centre, Hamilton, Canada.
  • Advanced Training: Hyperthermia Techniques at Erasmus MC, Netherlands.
