Deepika Phukan Guwahati

“I have myself walked the road of this dreaded disease. We have it all here, in our own State. I have had the care of a specialized and skilled surgeon, a medical oncologist, a radiation oncologist and a pathologist each with expertise in their relevant fields here in the Dr. B. Borooah Cancer Institute. They are caring human beings, dedicated to their vocations and their patients. I owe it to them that I have fought this battle and defeated cancer, for now anyway! ”.

Mr Debaraj Giri 65 years Chandmari Guwahati, Assam

“Doctors of BBCI are very cooperative.

Whenever we want, they come to visit us. I am

surprised to see that the Director Sir regularly

visits us with a sweet smile which lit the light of our

hopes”.

Maloti Basfore Auxiliary Staff, BBCI

“I suffered from cervical cancer of uterus in 1999.

I was operated and radiated at BBCI. I am

completely cured and doing my routine work as I

did before”

Sri Ram Charan Deka 53 years Pandula Nalbari, Assam

“GMCH referred me to BBCI. I never thought I will be cured. Now I am on the way to my life. I shall always remain grateful to the doctors and all the concerned personnel for their treatment and cordial co-operation. I was taken to Accoland on 9

th August ‘08. If I were not admitted

here, then I could not have seen Accoland. Beside treatment, social and mental support is also required for a patient like me which I get in BBCI”.

Usha Devi Staff Nurse, BBCI

“I work as staff nurse at BBCI. I suffered from breast cancer 4 years ago. I received treatment here and completely fine now. I am grateful to the Doctors and staff of our Institute”.

Suren Kalita 65 years Barpeta, Assam

After discharge, I will visit again BBCI now and then”.

Singer Samar Hazarika Assam

“I received treatment at Dr. B. Borooah Cancer

Institute and am fine for last few years. Fight

cancer with courage. Let us work together for

prevention and early detection of cancer. BBCI is

well equipped for treatment of cancer”.

Tamebi Takik 36 years Arunachal Pradesh

“After admitting here I couldn’t adjust myself with the environment with the hospital. But, now I find my home and family members here. The weekly sight seeing programme for the patient of BBCI is praiseworthy”.

Daya Devi Goswami Dibrugarh, Assam

“For the first time in my life, I have seen hospital conducting sightseeing programme for patients without money. I have forgotten about my illness on that day. When I came here I almost gave up hope. After treatment in this Institute I am now confident that I shall be cured within a short time. After I go back from here I shall spread my success story. I hope BBCI will progress day by day and patients like me will come back alive from the jaws of death”.

Singer Kula Baruah Assam

“I am completely cured of cancer. I enjoy singing

at BBCI for my fellow patients. I wish all of them

speedy recovery. Musical programme which are

organized regularly for patients at BBCI will

certainly stimulate the spirit. Cancer can be cured

if detected and treated early”.

Smt. Troisi Kharsohnoh Nongrah, Shillong

“I shall undergo operation tomorrow (21.08.08).

According to my opinion, Dr. B. Borooah Cancer

Institute is a very good Hospital. Doctors and all

the staff are very helpful and negotiable. We wish

all of them success in life.”

Md. Hazarat Ali Pramanik Goalpara, Assam

“I was admitted at BBCI on 30th July 2008.

Earlier I stayed for 10 days. The sightseeing

programme of BBCI is praiseworthy. This

experience will ever remain alive in my memory.

The ambiance of the hospital is good. There is

scope for further improvement in the services of

doctors and nursing staff”. �

The Rising Sun of East

There is more to North East India than virgin wildness, violence and poverty and

Dr. Bhubaneswar Borooah Cancer Institute Proves just the same, explores Micky Neelam Kachhap.

“Spread over an

area of 14.1 acre,

this premium

institute is the only

dedicated centre in

North Eastern

India offering

Multi-disciplinary

cancer treatment

comparable to any

other cancer centre

of the country.”

NB : The above article was published in Modern Medicare, Vol-4, No. 3, February 2008

Dr. Bhubaneswar Borooah Cancer Institute (BBCI) is a symbol of

hope for the people of

North East India. The

Guwahati-based institute

stands tall in the land of

hostilities and

catastrophes, serving its

people and providing the

much desired care and

support required by a

cancer patient. The effort

is commendable because

the region is not

economically developed

and poor connectivity

and physical barriers of

distance compound the

problem. Further, it is

alarming to note that a

large per cent of the

population in the region

is affected by cancer,

Recently, the WHO

sponsored National

Cancer Registry

Programme pointed out

that the minimum age

adjusted incidence rate of cancer in this region is

significantly higher. Consequently, the role of

BBCI as a Regional Center for Cancer Treatment

and Research has gained immense importance, as it

is the only dedicated centre offering multi-focal

therapy options for cancer.

Battling a long and difficult past, the institute has

been able to keep up with the changing and

challenging times of cancer treatment. Today, it

boasts of all the modern diagnostic facilities, state-

of-the-art equipment, well-equipped OTs and wards

and a versatile staff. Further, the recent wave of

new facilities at BBCI such as telemedicine and

stem cell research has propelled the institute to

seek the top slot among cancer institutes in the

country. BBCI has reinvented itself, improving and

adding on to its infrastructure, to accommodate the

increasing number of cancer patients in the region.

BBCI is scaling new heights with its presence in

international Union Against Cancer (UICC), a

Geneva membership, which brings the expertise of

the largest independent, non-profit NGO to this

region. Recently, the institute also got a Centre of

Excellence grant of Rs. 5 crore from the Ministry of

Health & Family welfare, Government of India for

infrastructure development. This will further

strengthen BBCI’s presence in the domain of

cancer treatment.


====================================[ ]====================================

88

“The institute

lays emphasis on

increasing public

awareness and

detection of

cancer at early

stage along with

pain and

palliative care

services to

terminally ill

patients”.

For the most part, the institute draws its funds from

the department of Atomic Energy, Government of

India and Government of Assam.

The Beginning

BBCI, named after the great physician,

philanthropist and freedom fighter Dr.

Bhubaneswar Borooah, is the only comprehensive

cancer hospital in the entire North-East India. It

was set up by a voluntary organization called Dr.

Bhubaneswar Borooah Cancer society Trust in

1973. The institute caters to all North Eastern states

and the neighbouring countries of Nepal, Bhutan,

Myanmar and Bangladesh. In 1980, the institute

was recognized as the regional Cancer Centre by

the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare,

Government of India.

Spread over an area of 14.1 acre, this premium

institute boasts of multi-disciplinary cancer

treatment comparable to any other cancer centre of

the country. Incidentally, the 33-year-old institute

started with a single OT with minimal facilities

which has now upgraded to four fully furnished

OTs with sophisticated equipment and a post-

operative recovery room and ICU. At present, it is a

155-bed hospital catering to about 6,000 patients

every year.

Diagnosis and Treatment

The department of radiodiagnosis and imaging is

equipped with high-tech equipment such as the

mammography machine with stereotactic biopsy

facilities. It has many advanced devices such

multiple slice spiral CT scan and 1.5 Tesla MRI

Machine. Additionally, there is a nuclear medicine

division with a gamma camera for radioisotope

scanning. These machines are available beyond

usual laboratory hours and extra consultants are

engaged to do CT scanning during late evening late

evening hours.

Radiation oncology department is equipped with

two cobalt-60 teletherapy machines, one dual

energy linear accelerator with MLC, IMRT and 3D

CRT. This sophisticated state-of-the-art facility, a

recent addition, is available only in a few selected

institutions in the country. The hospital also has

brachytherapy machines. Also available is a

conventional simulator, CT simulation facility,

computerized 3D treatment planning system and

precise treatment planning system with

workstations. External radiation therapy is given to

patients till late evening in different batches and the

average waiting period for radiotherapy is

approximately seven days.

Pathology department is equipped with fully

automatic biochemistry analyzer, enhanced

chemiluminiscence immunodiagnostic system for

tumour markers, hormones and drugs. Routine

haematological tests are done with himalyser, 3D

cell counter. Histopathology, including frozen

section biopsy and cytology is done for a large

number of patients. In addition, immuno

histochemistry for various receptions, oncogene,

CD markers have been introduced recently. Further,

the blood bank is being upgraded for component

separation with online cell separator. The institute

is working towards establishing peripheral stem cell

transplantation programme in the near future. Fully

automated real-time PCR is also installed in this

department for genetic laboratory.

_______________

Different types of surgeries are routinely performed

at the institute for head and neck cancers, cancer of

the oesophagus, breast, stomach, colon, liver,

pancreas, bone and lung. Cancer of uterine cervix,

overy, vulva and uterus are also done regularly.

Interestingly, laser surgery facility is also available.

Dr. A. C. Kataki

Director


====================================[ ]====================================

89

Various forms of reconstructive and video-

microscopic surgeries are performed in addition to

video-endoscopic procedures, which are done in the

OPD itself. In fact, the video colposcopy procedure

provides opportunity for early detection of cervical

cancer. Introduction of minimally invasive

Laproscopic surgery and Cystoscopic surgery is in

the pipeline. In addition, a center of excellence in

stapler technique has been set up to impart training

to the doctors of the North-East Region.

Medical oncology department has facilities for day-

care chemotherapy in addition to in-house

chemotherapy of longer duration. Interestingly, a

Joint Tumour Clinic is held weekly and a multi

disciplinary tumour board decided treatment plan

on a daily basis, Moreover, mortality meetings are

held regularly to discuss the outcome of the

treatments imparted to patients.

Investigation and treatment cost in the institute are

offered at a moderate rate and there are provisions

for free treatment for the extremely poor patients

under a scheme known as “Mukhyomantrir Jibon

Jyoti Bima Achoni”, which is financed by the

Government of Assam and distributed by ICICI

Lombard GIC Ltd.

Prevention and Awareness.

BBCI, in addition to patient treatment, lays

emphasis on prevention and early detection of

cancer through public awareness. A department of

Preventive Oncology and Pain and Palliative Care

Services was started recently along with a Speech

Therapy Clinic. Incidentally, the department of

preventive oncology in the institute stated a Health

Education Programme on Cancer and Tobacco

since 2003, which reached out to various schools,

colleges and institutes of Guwahati. This

programme targets the youth and educates them

about the harmful effects of tobacco consumption

and related effects. Also, with the support from

WHO and government of India, a Tobacco

Cessation Clinic has been started in order to

counsel and motivate tobacco consumption.

Additionally, a concurrent school health education

programme on cancer was introduced in 2003 and

is conducted regularly since then to educate

children. The institute also observes cancer

awareness month where street shows, radio and

television talks, sensitization of school and college

students, essay and quiz competition, interaction

with relatives of cancer patients and musical

programmes from the main activities. Further,

cancer awareness and early detection camps in rural

and urban area are conducted with the help of

NGOs. Such awareness programmes are not just

restricted to Assam but are also organised in

Laser Surgery


====================================[ ]====================================

90

Nagaland, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh and other

North Eastern states, NGOs like Deepsikha,

Suratirtha, Eastern India Women’s Association and

may others have joined hands with BBCI to cater to

different causes related to cancer.

Research and Training

There are ongoing research projects on cancer and

many of these are supported by ICMR and WHO in

addition to population Based caner registry. In fact,

research projects are done in collaboration with the

Biochemistry Department of North Eastern Hill

University, Shillong and Cancer Foundation of

India, Kolkata. Incidentally, the results of some

works have been published in International

Journals.

Recently, the Ministry of Development of North

Eastern Region (NONER) Government of India,

sanctioned a Capacity Development Project for

community based cancer prevention and curly

detection programe and capacity development of

technical staff of the institute. This programme will

help develop the skills of health personnel at

various levels to effectively deal with the

prevention and control of cancer.

Various teaching and training programmes have

also been started lately. A three-month certificate

course for doctors and paramedical staff has been

started from November last. This year, a two-year

postgraduate diploma in radiotherapy technology

has also been introduced in addition to the diploma

programme in laboratory technology and certificate

courses for doctors and paramedical staff in various

disciplines.

DNB students form Down Town Hospital, GNRC

Hospital and Railway Hospital are also posted at

BBCI for short-term training programmes held

regularly. Full-time postgraduate students from the

ENT and radiology Department of Guwahati

Medical College are also posted for various

courses. Numerous workshops, seminars,

conferences are organized regularly at the institute.

In addition, the medical staff from BBCI regularly

participates in a range of national and international

conferences.

Other facilities

BBCI has a telemedicine facility through which

complicated patients are consulted with Tata

Memorial Hospital, Mumbai and other institutes in

the country. This unit is also connected to the

respective telemedicine units in Jorhart Civil

Hospital, RIMS Imphal, Naharlogun Hospital,

Itanagar Civil Hospital and MoKoKchung Hospital

in Nagaland.

Recently, a Dharamshala called Jironi Ghar was

inaugurated at the institute premises. According to

the administration, a large number of cancer

patients come to Guwahati for treatment every

month. Apart from spending on treatment, the

patients along with their relatives have to shell out a

lot of money on accommodation at hotels, lodges

and rented houses. The purpose of constructing the

Jironi Ghar was to enable even the poor patients to

come to the city and stay comfortable for

treatments. The Jironi Ghar charges a nominal fee

from patients and provides both accommodation

and food.

For terminally ill cancer patients, there is a pain and

palliative care clinic in collaboration with Guwahati

Pain and Palliative Care society. Moreover, clinical

psychologists and social investigators provide

necessary counseling at this centre. For

rehabilitation, BBCI has a speech therapy clinic,

which has proved to be very useful for the patients

here. Also, various activities like sight seeing

programmes, musical programmes, meditation and

yoga courses, community prayer programmes,

indoor games and library facilities and provided for

the patients to help them feel lively. Patients are

encouraged to get involved in tree plantation,

gardening, etc., to keep them close to nature and

beautify the place.

For the Staff

There is availability of a physical fitness training

centre and a separate library for the non-medical

staff of the hospital. Additionally, Shrity, a wall

magazine is published by the employees. At BBCI,

hospital services appraisal system has been re-

regulated with effect from 2006. In this system, all

patients are directed to report to the social

investigator at the time of discharge, who hands out


====================================[ ]====================================

91

an appraisal form, which patients are supposed to

fill and list their experiences while at the hospital.

BBCI on its part is taking its role seriously, as is

evident from the dedicated and untiring efforts of

the employees of the institute. In the last couple of

years, the flow of patients in the hospital has

increased and annual revenue has gone up

significantly. Further, the administration has been

streamlined and the services are made more patient

friendly.

BBCI has come a long way from being just a cancer

institute to being a centre of excellence. There are

plans for the development and upgradation of the

institute, foremost being establishing it as a tertiary

care centre for cancer treatment. The benefits of

such developments will surely be translated into

better patient care and survival rate.
