Mammogram in October
A mammogram is a low-dose X-ray of the breast. It can show a cancer while it is still too small to feel. It is usually advised for women aged 40 and above.
म्यामोग्राम स्तनको सानो एक्स-रे हो। हातले छाम्दा थाहा नहुने सानो क्यान्सर पनि यसले देखाउन सक्छ। ४० वर्ष वा माथिका महिलालाई सुझाइन्छ।
Other screening tests (Pap smear, PSA, colonoscopy)See a doctor if you notice
- A new lump or thick area in the breast or armpitस्तन वा काखीमा नयाँ गाँठो वा कडा भाग
- The breast changes in size or shapeस्तनको आकार वा बनावट फरक हुनु
- Dimples, redness or skin like an orange peelछालामा खाल्डो, रातोपन वा सुन्तलाको बोक्रा जस्तो देखिनु
- Nipple turns inward, or fluid or blood comes outचुचुरो भित्र धसिनु, वा त्यसबाट पानी वा रगत आउनु
Most lumps are not cancer, but every new lump should be checked. Do not wait for the offer or for a screening test.
धेरैजसो गाँठा क्यान्सर हुँदैनन्, तर हरेक नयाँ गाँठो जाँच गराउनुपर्छ। छुट वा स्क्रिनिङ पर्खिनु पर्दैन।

KCC speciality
Brachytherapy: radiation placed right next to the tumour
In brachytherapy a small radiation source is placed inside or very close to the cancer. The tumour gets a strong dose and the healthy tissue around it gets less. For some cancers it can be an alternative to a bigger operation.
ब्राकिथेरापीमा विकिरणको सानो स्रोत क्यान्सरको भित्र वा ठीक नजिकै राखिन्छ। क्यान्सरलाई कडा मात्रा पुग्छ, वरिपरिको स्वस्थ भागलाई कम असर पर्छ। केही क्यान्सरमा यसले ठूलो शल्यक्रियाको विकल्प हुन सक्छ।

Why KCC
Treatment you would travel to India for. Now in Kathmandu.
Many Nepali families went to India for advanced cancer treatment. That meant weeks away from home, a new city, language problems and high costs. Our doctors trained at Tata Memorial, AIIMS, PGI and cancer centres in Europe, and came back to work in Nepal.
