What is Cancer?
Our bodies are made of trillions of tiny cells. Normally, these cells grow, divide and die in a natural cycle. Cancer happens when this process goes wrong. Abnormal cells start to grow too fast, don’t die when they should and crowd out healthy cells. This can make it harder for the body to work properly and in some cases, the cancer can spread to other parts of the body.
There are over 100 types of cancer. Doctors group them into three main categories:
- Solid Cancers: These are the most common and account for 80–90% of all cases. They include cancers that start in the skin or organs like breast, lung and colon cancer and cancers that start in bones, muscles or connective tissue.
- Blood Cancers: These start in the blood or lymph system such as leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.
- Mixed Cancers: Rare cancers that have features of more than one type such as carcinosarcoma.
Although cancer is a serious illness, medical advances are helping people live longer and healthier lives. Early detection, improved tests and treatments tailored to each person are enhancing survival and recovery.
At Medicover Hospital, we believe that understanding cancer is the first step to fighting it. We help patients and families learn about the disease, explore all treatment options and get access to the latest therapies. As one of the top cancer hospitals in India, our goal is not just to treat cancer but to bring hope and healing through advanced care and constant innovation.
Types of Cancer
Cancer can develop in almost any part of the body and each type requires a different approach to diagnosis and treatment. At Medicover Hospitals, we specialise in treating a variety of cancers with advanced technology, expert specialists and compassionate care to ensure the best possible outcomes.
Cancer Screening & Prevention
Being one of the best cancer hospital in India, our cancer screening and prevention programs are designed to identify cancers at their earliest stages, when they are most treatable to improve survival rates and overall quality of life.
Medicover Cancer Screening Programs
1. Breast Cancer Screening
Early detection of breast cancer can increase the chance of a complete recovery. At Medicover Hospitals, our breast cancer screening program follows international best practices, combining advanced technology with expert care.
Our screening approach includes:
- Annual mammograms for women aged 40 and above.
- Digital mammography with 3D tomosynthesis for greater accuracy.
- Ultrasound for women with dense breast tissue.
- Risk-based screening for women with a family history of breast cancer.
- Regular clinical breast examinations by specialists.
2. Colorectal Cancer Screening
Colorectal cancer can be prevented or detected early through regular screening. We use advanced diagnostic methods to detect precancerous growths and early-stage cancers.
Our screening protocol includes:
- Routine colonoscopy starting at age 45.
- High-definition colonoscopy for enhanced visibility.
- Advanced techniques for polyp detection and removal.
- Risk-based follow-up intervals for high-risk patients.
3. Lung Cancer Screening
Lung cancer is diagnosed at an advanced stage but early detection can save lives. Our lung cancer diagnosis program uses low-dose CT scans and risk assessment tools to detect abnormalities before symptoms appear.
Screening recommendations:
- Annual low-dose CT scans for high-risk individuals.
- Radiation dose optimisation for patient safety.
- Detailed analysis by experienced radiologists.
- Regular follow-up for detected abnormalities.
4. Cervical Cancer Screening
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers because of effective screening and vaccination programs. We offer advanced cervical cancer screening facilities that combine advanced diagnostic tools with a focus on prevention.
Our screening approach includes:
- Regular Pap smears starting at age 21.
- HPV testing for women aged 30 and above.
- Colposcopy for abnormal results.
- Risk-based screening intervals based on individual health history.
- Awareness programs on HPV vaccination for prevention.
5. Prostate Cancer Screening
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, especially in men over the age of 50. At Medicover Hospitals, we prioritise early detection to enhance treatment outcomes and improve quality of life.
Our screening approach includes:
- PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) blood test.
- Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) by experienced urologists.
- MRI-guided prostate imaging for accurate diagnosis.
- Risk-based screening for men with a family history of prostate cancer.
- Personalised screening schedules based on individual risk profiles.

Genetic Testing for Cancer Detection
At Medicover Hospitals, our Comprehensive Cancer Genetic Testing Program combines advanced diagnostic technology with expert genetic counselling to help patients understand their inherited cancer risks and make informed health decisions.
1. Hereditary Cancer Syndromes
Some cancers are linked to inherited genetic mutations passed down through families. Identifying these mutations early can help prevent cancer or detect it at its most treatable stage.
Common genetic mutations we test:
- BRCA1 and BRCA2: These genes are associated with an increased risk of breast and ovarian cancers.
- Lynch Syndrome genes: These are related to some colorectal and other cancers.
- TP53 mutations: These are connected to Li-Fraumeni syndrome, which can cause multiple cancer types.
- Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN) genes: These are linked to tumours in endocrine glands.
Testing is recommended for individuals with:
- Strong family history of cancer.
- Cancer diagnosis at a young age.
- Multiple types of cancer in the same person.
- Rare or unusual cancer types.
- Ethnic backgrounds with known higher genetic risk.
2. Prenatal and Newborn Screening
Early genetic screening can detect inherited conditions in unborn babies and newborns, allowing for timely treatment and improved health outcomes.
Prenatal genetic testing includes:
- Screening for chromosomal abnormalities
- Detection of inherited genetic disorders
- Assessment of cancer predisposition
- Carrier testing for genetic conditions
- Expert genetic counselling for parents.
Newborn screening features:
- Testing for metabolic and genetic disorders
- Early detection of treatable conditions
- Monitoring and follow-up care
- Guidance and support for families
For pediatric cancer cases that require advanced treatments like proton therapy, we ensure:
- Precise targeting of cancer cells
- Minimal impact on growth and development
- Reduced long-term side effects
- A comprehensive, child-focused care approach.
3. Pharmacogenomics
Every patient responds differently to medications and genetics can influence how well a medicine works or its potential side effects. Our pharmacogenomic testing helps personalise cancer treatment for maximum effectiveness and safety.
Our testing covers:
- Comprehensive genetic analysis for drug metabolism.
- Prediction of individual medication response.
- Assessment of potential drug interactions.
- Optimal dosage recommendations.
- Identification of side effect risks.
