Ahmedabad, India, 4 Mar 2024 – In response to the escalating cancer challenge in India, the Centre for Ai Innovation (CEAI) emphasizes the critical importance of a comprehensive approach to address the alarming rise in cancer cases across the country. As recent data indicates a concerning increase in cancer diagnoses, particularly lung and breast cancers, CEAI spokesperson Shanker Dahmodaran underscores the urgency of implementing preventive measures to combat this growing health crisis.

The recent Free Cancer Screening Camp organized by the Asanaj Healthcare Education and Research Foundation Mumbai Led by Dr. Amjadkhan Pathan, with the support of CEAI and Medgiver, a MyFinB Company, serves as a significant step towards early detection and awareness.

“Early detection and proactive monitoring are essential in minimizing the pain and burden for those undergoing treatment.

Agreeing with the observations, “As a medical professional witnessing the alarming rise in cancer cases over the past decade, it is evident that urgent action is needed to address this pressing health crisis. The increase in lung and breast cancers, among others, underscores the importance of early detection and preventive measures. We must prioritize awareness campaigns, accessible screening facilities, and robust treatment infrastructure to effectively combat this disease. Collaboration between government bodies, healthcare organizations, and technology partners like CEAI and Medgiver is crucial in implementing proactive strategies to alleviate the burden of cancer on individuals and communities. Together, we can work towards improving healthcare outcomes, reducing mortality rates, and ensuring a better quality of life for all those affected by cancer.” – Dr. Amjadkhan, CEO of Medgiver (India).
