Learn more about Radiation Oncologists
A radiation oncologist specializes in treating cancer with radiation. Radiation oncologists consult with other specialists to develop radiation treatment plans and ensure the safety and accuracy of radiation therapy. They are involved in patient care before, during and after radiation therapy for many types of cancer, from bladder cancer to brain tumors.
Radiation oncologists work in hospitals and freestanding radiology clinics. They are key members of cancer care teams that may include oncologists, surgeons, primary care doctors, and other radiologists and specialists.

Radiation oncologists oversee all aspects of radiation treatment, including prescribing the radiation therapy and ensuring treatments are accurate and minimize damage to healthy tissue nearby.
