Hyderabad: A series of talks by oncologists, patient-doctor interaction sessions, free screening initiatives and planting of saplings were organised throughout the week by voluntary organisations and hospitals in the city to mark World Cancer Day which was on February 4.

On Sunday, Apollo Cancer Institute (ACI) held a supercar rally, which was flagged off by actors Malvika Sharma and Catherine Tresa, from Necklace Road to Apollo Cancer Institutes, Jubilee Hills. “Almost 70 per cent of cancers detected today are due to our lifestyle and therefore, awareness is critical to make people understand that minor modification in lifestyle is vital,” Director, ACI, Dr Vijay Anand Reddy said.

Doctors and cancer survivors at Continental Hospitals planted saplings within the hospital campus. “Cancer tests not just the physical but also the mental endurance of patients and our efforts are not just to treat the ailment, but to give individuals a sense of self-belief to return to normalcy,” said Dr Riyaz Khan, CEO, Continental Hospitals.

Medicover Cancer Institute (MCI) Madhapur organised a bike rally, which was flagged-off by actor Sumanth. “There is a definite need to spread more awareness on cancer and urge people to modify their lifestyle,” said MD and surgical oncologist, Dr Srinivas Juluri.

Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer Hospital collaborated with UPHC, Shoukath Nagar and Hyderabad Metropolitan Legal Services Authority and organised a cancer awareness programme, which was presided over by actor Balakrishna.
