Oncology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Oncologists are medical doctors who specialize in the care of patients with cancer. They work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as radiation therapists and nurses, to provide comprehensive care for patients with cancer.
The main goal of oncology is to diagnose cancer as early as possible and provide treatment that will eradicate the cancer or prolong the patient’s life. The treatment of cancer typically involves a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. In recent years, immunotherapy and targeted therapy have also been used in cancer treatment.
Oncologists also play an important role in providing emotional and psychological support to cancer patients and their families. They often work with a team of specialists to provide patient-centered care that addresses the physical, emotional, and social needs of the patient.
As cancer is a complex disease and treatments are continuously evolving, oncology is a fast-paced field that requires ongoing learning and adaptation. Also, cancer disproportionately affects elderly population and people with comorbidities, so oncology care is often delivered in coordination with other medical and surgical specialties.
