Bangalore: It was about four years ago that eight-year-old Rohan Ganesh was "re-born". Afflicted with Brianstem Glioma (tumour in the upper base of the brain), the boy was in the last stage of cancer. After several visits to hospitals in Bangalore, Rohan's parents were lost in despair. "The child has just a few months to live," was all got from doctors. They were proved wrong. Four months later, Rohan got a fresh lease of life, thanks to Quantum Magnetic Resonance Therapy (QMR therapy), brainchild of Dr V G Vasistha, founder and CEO, SBF Healthcare.
The average middle-class family had knocked on the doors of NIMHANS and Manipal Hospital in Bangalore. "Take the child home. He has got a few months to live. He needs to be happy with his family," Rohan's parents C Mahadevappa and Chandrakala were told everywhere.
The couple did not lose hope and were willing to sell everything so they could get the best treatment for their son. At the end, they approached SBF Healthcare. By then, his right hand was paralysed; his right leg was weak. He used to vomit several times a day and suffered from acute headache.
"I was not sure about QMR Therapy in the beginning. But, we had no other option. So, we started treatment," Dr Vasistha told DNA.
It took more than 10 years of research and five years of trial for Wing Cdr (Dr) V G Vasishta to invent the therapy. "The child was too small. We could not give him radio therapy. Neither was chemotherapy possible. We had to rule out surgery because that would cause paralysis. It was a queer case," said Dr Vasistha.
Improvement began to show just 28 days after the therapy was started. "The headache had reduced to a great extent. We stopped the painkillers. He also started gaining strength in his right hand in a few months," the doctor said.
Four years later, Rohan Ganesh is back at school. "He is almost cured. He attends school now. The weakness is gone. In fact, he has become ambidextrous," the doctor said.
For the first year, the boy had to undergo therapy every month. For the next two years, it was reduced to once in three months. Now, he needs follow-up just once in six months.
So, how does it feel to give life to terminally-ill cancer patients? "I feel humble and blessed. I am glad that I can see the results of my research in my lifetime," he said.

Electromagnetic beams of hope SBF Healthcare Pvt Ltd launched a revolutionary new palliative treatment for terminally-ill cancer patients at their office in Marathahalli on Saturday. Known as Quantum Magnetic Resonance Therapy (QMR therapy), it is a byproduct of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
Pioneered by Wg Cdr (Dr) V G Vasistha (retd), QMR therapy was unveiled after a study on 123 terminally-ill cancer patients. Police Commissioner Shankar Bidari and Wg Cdr Rakesh Sharma (retd) were present for the unveiling of the QMR machine called AKTIS meaning ray of hope in Greek.
QMR Therapy
QMR is a technology that is made to deliver highly complex quantum electromagnetic pattern in the radio and near-radio frequency spectrum, with precise command and control. The beams can be precisely controlled and focused on the cancerous tissues. By bringing the cell membrane potential from its negative to its normal potential, the cell reaches a resting state after which it stops dividing, thus causing programmed cell death of the tumour tissue and shrinkage of the tumour after a certain period of time.
How it works
Based on trial results and experience of QMR therapy, an improved form of the QMR machine called AKTIS has been developed to be used for providing palliative care to cancer patients. It is a computer-controlled device which generates quantum magnetic resonance beams to focus on the tumour.
