Oncology is the branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and study of cancer, practiced by physicians called oncologists who may specialize further into medical, surgical, or radiation oncology. Oncologists work with multidisciplinary teams including nurses, pathologists, and researchers to develop treatment plans involving chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, or emerging immunotherapies. The field also includes significant research components aimed at improving early detection and treatment outcomes.
