FAQ's Related to Radiation Oncologist

What does a radiation oncologist specialise in?
A radiation oncologist is an expert in treating cancer with high-energy radiation that kills cancer cells, reduces the size of tumors, and alleviates symptoms while sparing healthy tissues.
When is radiation therapy recommended for cancer treatment?
Radiation therapy can be administered before surgery (for tumor reduction), after surgery (to remove remaining cancerous cells), as a stand-alone (primary) treatment, or as palliative care for pain relief or symptom management.
Is radiation therapy used alone or with other cancer treatments?
In most instances, radiation therapy will be combined with surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapies. These multiple cancer treatments are used together as part of a thorough cancer treatment plan.
What types of cancers are commonly treated with radiation therapy?
The types of cancer that can be treated most often with radiation therapy include breast cancer, prostate cancer, cancers of the head and neck region, lung cancer, gynecologic cancers, brain tumors, pediatric cancers, and gastrointestinal cancers.
How is radiation therapy planned for a patient?
The initial steps to designing a course of radiation therapy include using imaging studies (CT, MRI, or PET scans) to identify the exact position of the tumor so that an individualised plan can be created specifying the amount and type of radiation that will be used.
Is radiation therapy painful?
Radiation therapy itself is not painful; it is similar to having an X-ray performed on you. Some patients may experience side effects from their treatment sometime after treatment, depending on the treatment site.
