Common questions before travelling for treatment in India

These answers explain coordination, not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation. Your specialist determines clinical care after assessment.

How do specialists decide between microsurgery and ZAP-X / CyberKnife?

Radiosurgery (ZAP-X or CyberKnife) treats specific tumor types and sizes without an incision, whereas larger tumors causing mass effect may require microsurgical resection. The neurosurgeon advises after reviewing your MRI.

How can I share large Brain MRI DICOM files?

Message us on WhatsApp first with your written report; our team will guide you on sharing scan images or DICOM links for the neurosurgeon.

When is it safe to fly after neurosurgery?

Typically 10–14 days after hospital discharge for open neurosurgery, once the neurosurgeon confirms stability and issues a Fit-to-Fly certificate.

Are coordination and translation free for neurology patients?

Yes, coordination and medical interpretation are completely free, and our hospital contracts provide 10% off operations and 20%–50% off prescribed medicines.
