Medical Oncology
Medical oncology is a branch of medicine that specializes in preventing, diagnosing, and treating cancer. It is the role of a medical oncologist to diagnose cancer and provide treatment in the form of the surgical removal of tumors, chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy, and/or immunotherapy.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is a treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
Infusion
Infusion is a means of delivering medication and fluids via a needle or catheter, such as an IV line. This allows medication and fluids to be delivered directly into the bloodstream at a controlled rate.
Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy, also known as radiotherapy, is the use of high doses of radiation to kill off cancer cells and cause tumors to shrink. In most cases, the radiation used is X-rays, although other types of radiation can be used. Radiation therapy is most often delivered externally, but can also be used internally.
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy
