Breast, Lung, Skin, Brain, Blood, Bone Cancer Care & Oncology Treatment

Oncology is a branch of medicine that deals with tumors (cancer). A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist.

Cancers are best managed by discussing in multi-disciplinary tumour boards where medical oncologist, surgical oncology, radiation oncology, pathologist, radiologist and organ specific oncologists meet to find the best possible management for an individual patient considering the physical, social, psychological, emotional and financial status of the patients.

Oncology is concerned with:

• The diagnosis of any cancer in a person
• Therapy (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other modalities)
