Our Specialities

Oncology is the medical specialty that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. It encompasses various sub-specialties, including medical oncology, surgical oncology, and radiation oncology.

Cancer can be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Certain risk factors, such as tobacco use, exposure to harmful chemicals, radiation exposure, family history of cancer, and certain infections, can increase the likelihood of developing cancer.

Cancer is diagnosed through various methods, including imaging tests (such as X-rays, CT scans, MRI scans, and PET scans), laboratory tests (such as blood tests and biopsies), and genetic testing. These tests help identify the presence, type, and stage of cancer.
