FAQ's Related to Radiation Oncologist

What does a radiation oncologist do?

A radiation oncologist is a doctor who uses radiation for the treatment of cancer. Radiation oncologists may use radiation to treat certain benign diseases like benign (non-cancerous) tumors. Radiation oncologists also work with other physicians like surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, medicine subspecialists, and are a part of the cancer team. Radiation oncologists also spend much time planning and performing radiation procedures. Planning plays a significant role in cancer treatment, as radiation has become more targeted. Radiation oncologists remain in touch with cancer patients post-treatment to keep a track of recovery.
