Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is used to view the tubes (ducts) that drain the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. It provides information that other imaging tests like x-rays or MRI scan cannot. A flexible endoscope, which is a tube with light or camera, is inserted through the mouth and passed down the patient’s throat to view the targeted areas.
Some of the procedures it can be used for are:
The average cost of ERCP in India is approximately Rs. 15,000 to 55,000. However, the prices may vary depending upon the hospitals in different cities.
The cost of ERCP in Hyderabad depends upon multiple factors and ranges from Rs. 30,000 to 50,000.
A variety of drugs are given to the patient, either intravenously or orally, to kill cancerous cells.
Beams of ionizing radiation are focused on the tumor(s) to kill cancerous cells.
This treatment also uses drugs to treat cancer. It differs from chemotherapy since the drugs target only the cancer cell’s: their specific genes and proteins. Thus, the side effects on healthy cells can be avoided.
