Radiation Oncology


Radiation Oncology  (radiotherapy/radiation therapy) is a medical specialty that plays an important role in the multimodal treatment of cancer. It works by delivering high-energy x-rays (photons) through a linear accelerator. These painless and undetectable therapeutic x-rays are used to treat a variety of malignancies. The linear accelerator is located in a cancer centre, where a multidisciplinary team of radiation oncologists (your specialist doctor), nurses, radiation therapists, and medical physicists will discuss radiation therapy as a treatment option with you, assess you, plan and deliver your treatment, and assist you with any side effects.
