Cancer and Oncology Research (CPD Accredited)

Radiation Oncology:

Radiation has been an effective tool for treating cancer for over 100 years. Approximately 60% of patients diagnosed with cancer receive radiation therapy as part of their treatment. Radiation oncology is the medical specialty that uses radiation energy to treat malignant diseases and occasionally benign conditions. Radiation therapy works by damaging the DNA within cancer cells, preventing them from reproducing.
