About Dr. Kalyani Premchandra
Professional summary
Dr. Kalyani Premchandra is a Consultant in Radiation Oncology at Apollo Hospitals, Bannerghatta Road, Bengaluru, with more than 13 years of experience.
Her radiotherapy practice spans external beam treatment, 3D conformal radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiation therapy, image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiation therapy and CyberKnife radiosurgery, and she performs both intracavitary and interstitial brachytherapy. Her work also extends to systemic treatment, including chemotherapy and immunotherapy for solid tumors, palliative chemotherapy and hormone therapy for breast cancer, which is relevant for patients whose plan combines radiation with drug treatment.
Dr. Premchandra holds an MBBS, an MD in Radiation Oncology and a DNB in Medical Oncology, and that dual training is reflected in her research. Her MD dissertation assessed the role of intraluminal brachytherapy with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in carcinoma of the esophagus, while her DNB thesis examined treatment-related adverse events of immunotherapy in patients with advanced cancers.
At AROICON 2019 in Thiruvananthapuram she presented a poster on the role of various fractionation schedules of radiation therapy in the treatment of bone metastases. In the same year she received a best paper award at FAMS for a comparison of external beam treatment and brachytherapy in patients with early-stage breast cancer treated with accelerated partial breast irradiation, and she is recognised as an accomplished researcher in radiation oncology. Her practice brings together site-specific radiation techniques, symptom-directed treatment, brachytherapy and the study of treatment toxicity.

Consultation preparation
- Pathology report and immunohistochemistry if already done.
- Staging imaging in DICOM where possible, plus the written report.
- Operative notes, prior systemic therapy and any previous radiation plan, including dose and volumes if available.
- A named clinical question: curative, adjuvant, salvage or symptom control.
Questions to ask
- Where will simulation and daily treatment take place, and is that the same campus as the consultation?
- Which technique is planned, and why not an alternative already documented on GAF’s cost guides?
- Who owns follow-up after you return home, and what is sent back to the referring team?
- What is the written estimate for the planned course — separate from any consultation fee?
