What Is Radiation Oncology?

Radiation Oncology is a specialized branch of cancer medicine that uses high-energy radiation to treat cancer. Radiation therapy may be recommended as the primary treatment for certain cancers or may be combined with surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or other treatments.

Depending on the cancer diagnosis, radiation therapy can be used to:

• Destroy or control cancer cells
• Reduce the size of a tumor before surgery
• Treat remaining cancer cells after surgery
• Control cancer progression
• Relieve symptoms caused by advanced cancer

The treatment approach is selected after evaluating the patient's diagnosis, medical history, imaging, pathology reports, and overall health.
