Diagnosis & Evaluation

Early and accurate diagnosis is the key to successful cancer treatment. At PRS Hospital, Dr. Aswathy offers comprehensive and precise diagnostic services for a wide range of gynecologic cancers including cervical, ovarian, uterine, vulvar, and vaginal cancers. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Aswathy combines clinical expertise with compassionate care to guide women through every step of their diagnostic journey.

The process begins with a detailed consultation where Dr. Aswathy takes the time to understand each patient’s symptoms, medical history, and concerns. Based on this assessment, she recommends appropriate investigations such as Pap smears, HPV testing, colposcopy, or biopsy procedures for a closer examination of abnormal cells.

For women experiencing unusual bleeding, pelvic pain, or masses, Dr. Aswathy may advise advanced imaging studies like transvaginal ultrasound, MRI, CT scan, or PET-CT to identify the size, location, and potential spread of disease. She also performs diagnostic laparoscopies or surgical biopsies when needed to obtain a clear and definitive diagnosis.

In select cases, Dr. Aswathy incorporates genetic testing, tumor markers like CA-125, and risk stratification to tailor the evaluation to each individual. This personalized approach ensures the most accurate diagnosis and forms the foundation of a successful treatment plan.

Throughout the diagnostic phase, Dr. Aswathy prioritizes patient education and open communication. She explains each finding in simple terms and involves the patient in decision-making, helping them feel informed and supported.

With a thoughtful, step-by-step approach and access to the latest diagnostic tools, Dr. Aswathy ensures that every woman receives timely and accurate evaluation—setting the stage for the best possible treatment outcomes and long-term wellbeing.
