Who is a Radiation Oncologist?

Also, radiation could be given either alone or together with chemotherapy and/or surgery. It can also be used palliatively, to provide relief in patients with incurable cancers.

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.
