About
Oncology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and related therapies like surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and other modalities. Cancer refers to a deadly disease in which a tumor is formed in any part of the body. This tumor is the result of an uncontrolled division of cells. Cancer can be potentially cured if it is diagnosed and treated in an early stage. Hence, early detection and management of cancer is of prime importance.
