Oncology is a crucial area of healthcare that focuses on cancer and a doctor who specializes in Oncology is known as an Oncologist.
Oncologic patients are cancer patients who have had or have a tumour.
When you are meeting with an oncologist, it's important to have a list of questions prepared to ensure that you have a clear understanding of your condition and treatment options. Some important questions to ask an oncologist may include stage of cancer, availability of treatment, treatment effect, daily routine life, follow-up appointments and any clinical trials.
Medical oncologists typically do not perform surgery. Medical oncology is a subspecialty of internal medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cancer using systemic therapies such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormonal therapy.
The three main types of oncology are medical oncology, surgical oncology, and radiation oncology. Each type focuses on a different aspect of cancer treatment. Medical oncologists specialize in the use of medications and chemotherapy to treat cancer. Surgical oncologists specialize in the surgical removal of tumors and surrounding tissue. Radiation oncologists specialize in using radiation therapy to treat cancer.
Oncologists manage your cancer treatment throughout your illness. They will help diagnose your cancer, identify treatment options and discuss each option's benefits and side effects.
Imaging tests allow your doctor to examine your bones and internal organs in a noninvasive way. Imaging tests used in diagnosing cancer may include a computerised tomography (CT) scan, bone scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) scan, ultrasound and X-ray, among others.
At the first appointment, the oncologist will talk about treatment options. The doctor will explain which ones are available, how effective they are and what the side effects may be. Then the oncologist will recommend a course and talk about when the treatments should take place.
The platform offers access to a wide network of verified doctors, making it easier for individuals to identify and connect with the right specialist for their oncologist needs.
A cancer specialist doctor consultation can between INR 500 to INR 2000.
