Medical Oncology
MEDICAL ONCOLOGISTSMedical Oncologists are specialist doctors who specialize in the management of cancer. They focus on the diagnosis of cancer, its therapy, follow-up as well as palliative care. Oncologists are also involved in screening efforts, of the population at large, and of patients with high cancer risk (eg. in types of cancer that are thought to have a hereditary basis, such as breast cancer).
