People who treat cancer are typically called oncologists. Oncology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer. Within oncology, there are various specialities, such as medical oncology (which focuses on chemotherapy and other systemic treatments), surgical oncology (which involves surgical procedures to remove tumours), and radiation oncology (which uses radiation therapy to target and kill cancer cells). Additionally, oncologists often work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals, such as pathologists, radiologists, and nurses, to provide comprehensive care to cancer patients.
