Dr. Sagar Gayakwad is Radiation Oncologist and Currently Working as Consultant Radiation Oncologist in the Radiation Oncology Department at KIMS Hospitals, Ghodbunder Road, Thane, India.
He is having more than 10 years of experience in the field of radiation oncology.
He has completed his MBBS, MD (Radiation Oncology) from Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai, DNB (Radiotherapy) and MNAMS, along with Advanced IMRT and VMAT Training in Germany.
Profile Highlights :
- Dr. Gayakwad's areas of interest are radiosurgery, adaptive radiotherapy and deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) radiotherapy. Radiosurgery delivers very high, precisely targeted doses of radiation to small tumours, while adaptive radiotherapy adjusts the treatment plan during the course of therapy as the tumour and surrounding organs change shape or position.
- He uses advanced techniques such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), which shape the radiation dose closely around the tumour to spare nearby healthy tissue. DIBH is widely used in left-sided breast cancer, where holding a deep breath moves the heart away from the radiation field and reduces the risk of cardiac side effects.
- His research has focused on head and neck cancer radiotherapy, including studies on volumetric and geometric changes in the parotid glands and target volume during intensity-modulated and image-guided radiotherapy for locally advanced oropharyngeal cancers, published in the Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics (2015 and 2023).
- He received the Dr. G.C. Pant Young Doctor Award from the Association of Radiation Oncologists of India and the Best Paper Publication award at AROICON 2015. He is a member of the European Society for Medical Oncology, the Association of Radiation Oncologists of India and its Maharashtra Chapter, and the American Society of Clinical Oncology.
