Oncology is a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist. The name's etymological origin is the Greek word ????? (ónkos), meaning "tumor", "volume" or "mass".
The three components which have improved survival in cancer are:
1. Prevention - This is by reduction of risk factors like tobacco and alcohol consumption;
2. Early diagnosis - Screening of common cancers and comprehensive diagnosis and staging; and
3. Treatment - Multimodality management by discussion in tumour board and treatment in a comprehensive cancer centre
Cancers are best managed through discussion on multi-disciplinary tumour boards where medical oncologist, surgical oncologist, radiation oncologist, pathologist, radiologist and organ specific oncologists meet to find the best possible management for an individual patient considering the physical, social, psychological, emotional and financial status of the patients. It is very important for oncologists to keep updated of the latest advancements in oncology, as changes in management of cancer are quite common. All eligible patients in whom cancer progresses and for whom no standard of care treatment options are available should be enrolled in a clinical trial.
