About the history of this department in PMCH,in early phases it was controlled by police department and teaching was done with Pathology department. Dr U P Verma the first HOD of forensic medicine department was posted in pathology department in his early phase. In 1966 the department got its independent existence with Dr U P Verma as its professor and head in the building which was on right wing of principal office adjacent to PSM department. He was an eminent scholar and his period extended from 1966 to 1983. After his retirement Dr R B Choudhary took charge as professor and HOD from 1983 to 1985. Due to his early demise Dr RK P Singh who was then associate professor took over the charge of HOD in 1985 and continued till 1988. Then Dr Vijay kumar who was a very bold person took over the charge as professor and head in 1988 and continued till 1993. In 1993 he died due to illness and Dr RKP Singh took over the charge for the second time as HOD and became professor later on and served a long period professor and head from 1993 to September 2014. He handled the department efficiently and in his regime the department got permanent recognition from MCI and also the construction of new G+ 6 building started. After his retirement in September 2014 Dr Arun Kumar Singh then associate professor took over the charge for a brief period of 11 months. In July 2015 Dr Sohan Pd Choudhary took over the charge of professor and head and continued till July 2021, during his period FMT or department was shifted to its present G+ 6 building. On 9th July 2021, Dr Pankaj Kumar who was then associate professor took charge of HOD and later became professor and till date he is working as professor and head of department

Dr Pankaj Kumar with his faculty members and PG students had a vision to add one Mock Court Room to this department which became true on 3.9.2022 when one newly constructed Mock Court Room was inaugurated by Dr Vidyapati Choudhary and was attended by galaxy of eminent forensic experts who praised this idea. This MOCK COURT ROOM is first among any medical colleges of Bihar. The mock court room is now being regularly used for case presentation as fortnightly basis and is very useful for UG and PG students to get acquainted with the atmosphere of court and its working. This has been done under the guidelines of NMC India.

We also take orientation lecture at Bihar Judicial Academy Patna of magistrates and judges and also training of police officials at Patel Bhawan Patna.

Presently the FMT department has 5 PG seats which was earlier 3 in number

At present the department is headed by Dr Pankaj Kumar (Professor & HOD) and other faculty members are Dr Anil Shandil (Professor), Dr Ritu (Associate Professor), Dr Shivranjan kumar (Associate Professor), Dr Kumud Ranjan (Tutor). 12 PG Trainees are presently working.

The first Department of Radiotherapy in India was opened on January 25, 1910 by the Countess of Minto at the Calcutta Medical College Hospital. It was during the British rule in 1913, when for the treatment purpose radioactive material in the form of Radium was brought to India at Ranchi, Bihar, by Col. Vaughan of Indian Medical Services (IMS) later in 1917; he published the work which was widely acclaimed. Then governor of Bihar Sir Edward Gaite directed the Director General, Health Services, to establish the Radium Institute, Ranchi, as he was greatly impressed by Col. Vaughan’s work.

There was establishment of at least four radium institutes in the four corners of the country. These included the Radium Institute in Patna, Radium Institute in Agra, Barnard Institute of Radiology in Madras and the Medical College of Lahore (now in Pakistan). The bulk stock of radium arrived at Ranchi (Bihar) and was then transported to the Radium Institute, Patna for clinical use. In 1928 Radium Institute was shifted from Ranchi to Prince of Wales College, Patna due to its easier accessibility to patients because of its central location, (The building of Radium Institute, Ranchi, on Radium Road is currently being used by the Indian Army, Eastern Command Garrison.)

The story is incomplete without mentioning the name of Maharaja of Darbhanga Mr. Kumar kameshwar Narayan Singh and his son, who donated a princely sum of Rs. 1,50,000/- for construction of new building for Radium Institute at Patna, which is still standing erect with all its glory, giving shelter to the radiotherapy department, PMCH and fulfilling the dreams of its founders of serving the masses and mainly those who are under privileged.

In 1966, Under the headship of Dr. Rangi Prasad Singh, first Teletherapy Cobalt Machine Unit (Theratron-60) was installed under the supervision of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited. He nurtured the Prince of Wales Medical College based Radium Institute at Patna, from its nascent stage in the 60’s to its pride of place in the 80’s, as Professor and Head of the Deptt. of Radiotherapy, A Colombo Plan Fellow (U.K). President, AROI (Bihar Chapter), Vice President IRIA (Oncology). He was visiting Professor at the Howard University Hospital, Washington and National Institute of Health, Bethesda, USA. Intimately associated with several socio-philanthropic institutions.

In 1972, Department of Radiology was bifurcated and Department of Radiotherapy assumed its prime place under headship of Dr. A.D. Singh. Renovation and upgradation was done. Second Teletherapy Cobalt Unit (Alderado-8) was installed, along with Radium Needles and tubes, Superficial and Deep therapy Machines, Simulator for treatment planning, Mould Room, Gamma Scanner and therapy unit, Diagnostic X-ray machine both static and portable and radiation Survey Metre were acquired. A Contemporary state of the art cancer treatment centre was established and blossomed into its unique glory

In 1974, Under Patna University Post-Graduate Degree Course (M.D Radiotherapy) was started and students from all corners of India got the opportunity to take admission and to learn this technical course.

In the year 2000 procedures to procure a New Teletherapy Cobalt Machine was initiated under the leadership of Prof. (Dr.) Mithilesh Kumar. In January 2003 old Cobalt Machine Theratron-60 was Reconditioned and Inaugurated by Honourable Health Minister Dr Shakeel Ahmad.

On 16th August 2003, a new Cobalt Teletherapy Machine (Theratron-789 E) was installed in a newly constructed cobalt room and was inaugurated by Honourable Chief Minister, Smt. Rabri Devi in the presence of Honourable Sri Lalu Prasad Yadav, Honourable Dr. Shakeel Ahmad and other dignitaries in Government of Bihar.

Now under the dream project of our Honourable Chief Minister of Bihar, Sri Nitish Kumar, redevelopment of PMCH, is undergoing in full swing.

Under the Headship of Dr.(Prof.) Ravi Byahut, development of Cancer department as state-of-art department is taking place which will provide all aspects of cancer treatment under one roof including - Radiation Oncology, Medical Oncology, Surgical Oncology, Gynaecological Oncology, Preventive Oncology and Radiation Physics Departments

The Radiotherapy Department will be equipped with all the latest and Modern treatment machines such as Linear Accelerators, Afterload Brachytherapy, Simulators and Treatment Planning Systems

This will also give us opportunity to restart the Post-graduation course in Radiotherapy.

This department intends to serve ailing cancer patients with best possible treatment available in the modern era, free of cost and to produce best specialists in this discipline

The Department of Plastic Surgery was started in the year 1956 in Patna Medical College and Hospital. Initially, the Department was under the General Surgery Department as a separate unit headed by Prof. Dr. R.N.Sinha. Prof Sinha, fondly remembered as the Father of Plastic Surgery in Bihar –Jharkand, took all his efforts and later on started the Department as a separate department from General Surgery. Prof Sinha, later got trained under Sir Harold Gilles (Father of Modern Plastic Surgery) and Sir Gilles visited our department in early 1960’s and had operated few patients and even demonstrated many operative procedures for our resident doctors in 1964.

The Department during its inception was one of a kind in our nation along with its contemporary departments at Mumbai and Nagpur. Our department, later on in 1964 full-fledged as a post-graduation department. Our first trainees in the department were awarded M.S Plastic Surgery and their training started in 1961. First batch of our trainee plastic surgery residents were awarded the M.S Plastic Surgery degree in 1963. In 1964, after the Medical Council of India (MCI) inspection, M.S Plastic Surgery degree was recognized and entered in the schedule of MCI. Since the inception of our department, it has trained almost 150 plus resident doctors from all over the country
