Towards this vision, our experts conducted a study and have successfully established new reference values for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) specific to the Indian demographic. This marks an important milestone in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment. Similarly, setting up of India`s first Al precision oncology centre in Bengaluru enables us to offer best-in-class cancer care leveraging the potential of Al that ensures accurate diagnosis, real-time insights, cancer risk assessment, treatment protocol and continuum of care.
