Hello Kashinath! I am not sure about Acharya Harihar Cancer Centre not having the latest technology because it is a regional cancer centre. On the other side, if what you say is true, it is better that you get your brother in law treated at Charitable or Government Hospitals if there is a cash crunch. 

Referring to an answer I have written below, the cost of a liver surgical resection would be approximately 3500 USD ( 250,000 INR ). Given the money you have saved up ( 300,000 - 400,000 INR or 4250 - 5650 USD), you can even opt for a private hospital if there is an urgency or preference to get treated in one. 

You should go to major metropolitan cities like Hyderabad or Chennai which would be the closest to you. Apart from this there are also some best cancer hospital in Odisha.

Private Cancer Hospitals:

1. American Oncology Institute
2. Apollo Health City
3. Fortis Malar Hospital
4. Apollo Hospital

Government/ Charitable Cancer Hospitals:

1. Adyar Cancer Institute, Gandhi Nagar (Charitable)
2. Royapettah Government Hospital, West Cott Road (Government)

Hello Mehedi! If it is what your doctor has said, then you should continue with your mother's chemotherapy till she comes to India. Judging from what you have written and the line of treatment adopted, I assume that the gall bladder cancer is unresectable. So in this case Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy or both can be used.

Factors effecting the cost - 

In case of Chemotherapy, you might already know that Chemotherapy cost depends on the drugs and the number of cycles the drug is administered. In case of Radiation Therapy the cost depends on the number of sittings. Overall, both these treatments will be comparatively at a lesser price in a Government Hospital but with the issue of being in a waiting list for treatment.

Approximate cost -

The costs are as follows: 

1. Chemotherapy - Government Hospital - 200 USD to 500 USD ( 14,300 INR to 35600 INR. Private Hospital - 1200 USD - 1500 USD ( 85,300 INR - 107,000 INR )
2. Radiation Therapy - Government Hospital - 3000 USD to 4000 USD (214,000 INR to 285,000 INR). Private Hospital - 4,000 USD to 5,000 USD (285,000 INR to 357,000 INR)

Hello Akash! Liver enlargement is usually associated with the contraction of jaundice. On the other hand, liver cancer can also be a reason for the swelling up of the liver. Given the dearth of money, you should take your relative to a Government or a Charitable Hospital to meet a Hepatologist. He will conduct tests and confirm whether your relative has cancer or not. The only issue with Government/ Charitable Hospitals is that you will have to wait a considerable amount of time till your turn for treatment comes. And I am positive that the liver enlargement would just be because of jaundice and not cancer. Hope my answer helps you! You can refer this page - Hepatologist in Delhi, let us know if your location is different.
