About Dr. Das

Dr. Das is Professor and Chief of the Gastrointestinal (GI) Radiation Oncology Section at MD Anderson.

The MD Anderson GI Radiation Oncology Section represents decades of GI cancer expertise by nine radiation oncology doctors, and a specialized team of GI radiotherapy physician assistants, nurses, physicists, therapists, and dosimetrists. We treat cancers of the stomach, liver, bile duct, pancreas, rectum, and anus. We offer every type of radiotherapy technology including intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), and proton therapy, always selected and personalized for each patient. We are constantly working to improve radiotherapy for GI cancers, and offer many clinical trials designed to make radiotherapy more effective with fewer side effects.

Dr. Das treats all types of GI cancers. He is renowned for his clinical research on GI cancers. He has published over 150 articles, and a textbook titled Radiation Therapy for Gastrointestinal Cancers. He is passionate about educating the next generation of doctors, and serves as Deputy Department Chair for Education.
