He specializes in utilizing advanced radiation technologies for Brain, Head, and Neck, Breast, Gastrointestinal, and Gynecological cancers, etc.
He is proficient in various brachytherapy techniques for Breast, Sarcomas, Cervix, Prostate, Lung, and Liver cancers, as well as IGRT SRS and SBRT treatments.
His educational qualifications include an MBBS from Pondicherry Institute of Medical Sciences/Pondicherry University in 2012 and an MD (Radiation Oncology) from Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences/Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences), in 2017.
Dr. Kumar received specialized training to administer personalized, high-precision radiation therapy with minimal side effects.
He commissioned Stereotactic programs in ablative radiotherapy at ILBS Delhi, leading to significant publications in Liver SBRT for Hepatocellular carcinomas.
He was instrumental in implementing MRI-guided Brachytherapy for cervical cancer and conducted pioneering research in liver brachytherapy and HPV/telomerase roles in cancers.
He received the MC Pant Gold Medal for outstanding research in Radiation Oncology in 2016
Dr. Kumar was awarded a technology transfer grant by the European Society of Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology for advanced training in Cyberknife-based SRS and SBRT, proton therapy, and Hyperthermia at ERASMUS.
He was recognized with the Best Young Radiation Oncologist award and GC Pant Gold Medal at AROICON Ahmedabad 2019 for research contributions.
He contributed to the Low Dose Radiation for COVID-19 trial at AIIMS New Delhi.
Dr. Kumar is involved in developing breast brachytherapy guidelines by the Indian Brachytherapy Society.
He is fluent in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Kannada.
