Radiation Oncology
Radiation oncology is a medical specialty that involves treating cancer with ionising radiation. It is an important part of multimodality management of cancer and at least 70-80% of all cancer patients require radiation sometime during the course of their treatment. Radiation oncologists treat malignant diseases and work closely with medical oncologists, surgeons and other doctors to coordinate the best care for you. Different types of cancers including Breast, Rectal, Lung and many more are treated under Radiation Oncology.
