Cancer can be treated in several ways and often treatments are also combined. Which treatment is applied differs from patient to patient. The three most commonly used treatments are: surgery (i.e. via a surgical procedure), radiotherapy (i.e. via radiation) and medicinal (i.e. via medicines).
Oncology surgery is surgery performed when a cancer is diagnosed. Oncological surgery is highly specialized. Depending on the organ affected, another specialist will be consulted to ensure optimal treatment.
