How Much Does Lymphoscintigraphy Cost near Delhi?
What Affects the Cost of Lymphoscintigraphy?
Two patients rarely pay the same amount. These are the variables that move your final bill up or down near Delhi.
Hospital category
Accredited multi-speciality and quaternary-care hospitals price higher than mid-tier facilities, infrastructure and outcomes differ too.
Surgeon's experience
Senior specialists who perform this procedure frequently command higher professional fees, and typically shorter, safer recoveries.
Room category
General ward, twin-sharing, private, and suite rooms carry different nightly tariffs, and most other charges scale with the room class.
Implants, devices & consumables
Where the procedure uses implants or specialised consumables, the brand and grade chosen can change the bill significantly.
Length of stay & ICU time
Each extra night, especially in ICU, adds room, nursing, and monitoring charges beyond the quoted package.
Diagnostics & post-operative care
Pre-surgery work-up, imaging, lab tests, physiotherapy, and follow-up consultations vary with your overall health and recovery.
What a Hospital Package Typically Covers
Quoted estimates are usually packages. Knowing what sits inside - and outside - the package is how you avoid surprise bills.
Usually Included
- Surgeon, anaesthetist & operating theatre charges
- Standard room stay for the quoted number of nights
- Routine in-hospital nursing, medication & consumables
- Standard pre-operative work-up linked to the procedure

Every hospital defines its package differently. Always confirm what your final quote covers. MediFyr can collect itemised estimates from multiple hospitals near Delhi so you compare like for like.
About Lymphoscintigraphy
Key Highlights
Who Is This Surgery For?
- Staging of melanoma to locate the sentinel lymph node(s).
- Staging of breast cancer for sentinel lymph node identification.
- Evaluation of other cancers (e.g., penile, vulvar, head and neck) for lymphatic mapping.
- Diagnosing lymphedema (swelling caused by lymphatic system blockage).
- Identifying the site of a lymphatic leak or fistula.
- Planning for radiation therapy fields.
- Assessing the function of the lymphatic system in congenital or acquired disorders.
How to Prepare
- Inform your doctor about all medications, allergies, and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Usually, no special diet or fasting is required.
- Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing.
- You may be asked to remove jewelry and other metal objects.
- The procedure and its benefits/risks will be explained, and you will need to provide informed consent.
- For some studies, you may be asked to massage the injection site to aid tracer movement.
Risks & Possible Complications
- Minor discomfort, bruising, or redness at the injection site.
- Allergic reaction to the radiopharmaceutical (very rare).
- Low-level radiation exposure, which is considered safe and comparable to other diagnostic imaging tests.
- There is a very small risk of infection at the injection site.
- The test may occasionally fail to identify the sentinel node, requiring alternative methods.
Recovery & Hospital Stay
- You can typically resume normal activities and diet immediately after the scan.
- Drink plenty of fluids to help flush the tracer from your body.
- The radioactive material decays and is eliminated naturally within a day or two.
- You may receive specific instructions if the lymphoscintigraphy is performed just before a surgical biopsy.
- Mild soreness at the injection site can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers if needed.
- Follow any additional post-procedure instructions provided by the nuclear medicine team or your surgeon.
- Typical hospital stay: 0 days (outpatient procedure)
- Expected recovery time: 0-1 days

Recent Patient Comments
“clear explanation of results”
“Consultation process was very simple for the scan report today. Krishna sir showed us the images on the monitor and explained why the isotope levels were looking that way. He gave two options for the next steps and told us not to worry about the results for now. Everything is clear.”
