Radiation oncology arose as our understanding of radiation and its effects on the body improved and was coupled with a greater knowledge of cancer and how it could be treated. As x-rays were discovered in the late 19th century, the history of this branch of medicine is long. It would be unfair and inaccurate to ascribe to a single individual the invention of radiation oncology.
