AI, Awareness And A Guinness Record: Dr Raghu Ram's Fight Against Breast Cancer

Breast cancer specialist Dr P. Raghu Ram has secured his third Guinness World Record in just 15 months after hosting the world's largest audience for an interactive AI-enabled holographic breast health lecture. Using a digital avatar capable of communicating in multiple languages, the initiative combined cutting-edge technology with public health outreach to spread awareness about early detection. Speaking to NDTV, Dr Raghu Ram warned that breast cancer is increasingly affecting younger women in India, with nearly 60% of patients still diagnosed at advanced stages. He called for stronger screening programmes, better cancer registration and wider public awareness, while also launching the AI-powered NARI platform to provide round-the-clock breast health information across Indian languages.
