What This Review Covers

This second-opinion consultation is based on the reports and investigations you already have. Dr. Karan Gupta personally reviews your biopsy reports, imaging scans, and previous medical records to confirm the diagnosis, assess the stage of disease, and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan before you proceed further.

Histopathology (Biopsy) Review

Detailed review of your biopsy (histopathology) report, with evaluation of the original slides or tissue blocks whenever an expert pathology review is required.

FNAC Report Assessment

Review of FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) reports for lumps involving the neck, thyroid, salivary glands, or other head and neck structures.

CT, MRI & PET-CT Scan Review

Assessment of your CT, MRI, or PET-CT images using the actual films or digital scans, not just the written report, to accurately evaluate the extent of disease.

Previous Treatment Records

Review of discharge summaries, operative notes, previous biopsy or surgery records, and tumour board recommendations to guide future treatment decisions.

Whether you have a confirmed diagnosis, a suspicious biopsy report, or an existing treatment recommendation, this comprehensive review provides clarity and confidence before starting surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or any other cancer treatment.

When You Should Get Your Report Reviewed

A second-opinion review can provide valuable clarity at different stages of your cancer journey. Whether you have been recently diagnosed or have already started treatment, an expert review of your reports can help confirm the diagnosis and guide the most appropriate next steps.

After a New Cancer Diagnosis

If you have been diagnosed with oral, throat, thyroid, or salivary gland cancer and are unsure what your biopsy or scan report means, a detailed review can help you understand your diagnosis and treatment options.

Complex Pathology Findings

Terms such as high grade, positive margin, perineural invasion, or extranodal extension can significantly influence treatment decisions and should be clearly explained.

Before Starting Treatment

If you have been advised surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy elsewhere, obtaining an independent expert opinion can help confirm the recommended treatment plan before you proceed.

Questions About Scan Findings

CT, MRI, or PET-CT reports that mention possible tumour spread or other concerning findings should be carefully reviewed to understand their significance and impact on treatment.

Inconclusive or Borderline Results

If your biopsy results are inconclusive or borderline, an expert review can help determine whether repeat biopsy, additional pathology review, or further investigations are required.

After Surgery or Before Relocation

If you have already undergone surgery or are relocating to Delhi NCR for treatment, reviewing your final pathology report, previous records, and treatment plan helps ensure the next stage of care is appropriately planned.

What to Bring to Your Consultation

Bringing all relevant medical records helps ensure a comprehensive second-opinion review. The more complete your information, the more accurately your diagnosis, staging, and treatment options can be assessed.

Biopsy & Histopathology Reports

Bring the original or scanned copy of your biopsy or histopathology report. If a repeat pathology review is required, carry the original slides or tissue blocks whenever available.

CT, MRI or PET-CT Images

Bring the actual CT, MRI, or PET-CT films or CD/DVD (or digital copies), as reviewing the images is often more informative than relying only on the written report.

Previous Hospital Records

If you have already undergone a biopsy or surgery, carry your discharge summary, operative notes, and any other relevant hospital records for review.

Previous Treatment Recommendations

Bring recommendations from your oncologist, surgeon, or tumour board so they can be reviewed and discussed as part of your second-opinion consultation.

Further Tests if Required
