Who is a Radiation Oncologist?

A radiation oncologist is a specialist doctor who uses ionizing radiation in the treatment of cancer. Radiation oncology is one of the 3 primary specialties, including medical and surgical oncology, involved in the treatment of cancer.

A radiation oncologist might also use radiation for the treatment of some benign diseases, such as benign tumors. In some countries, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are performed by a single oncologist called a "clinical oncologist". Radiation oncologists work closely with other doctors such as interventional radiologists, surgical oncologists, internal medicine subspecialists, medical oncologists, and medical physicists as part of the multi-disciplinary cancer team.

Radiation oncologists have four years of oncology-specific training, and oncologists who provide chemotherapy have 2 years of additional training in cancer care while doing fellowship after internal medicine residency.
