Cancer care and prevention ?
Cancer care involves the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and palliative care of individuals with cancer. As a senior Radiation Oncologist with expertise in brachytherapy, you play a critical role in comprehensive cancer management. Here’s a breakdown of the key components of cancer care:
Prevention and Screening
- Lifestyle modifications: Promoting healthy habits like smoking cessation, balanced diets, and regular exercise.
- Vaccinations: HPV vaccines for cervical cancer and Hepatitis B vaccines for liver cancer.
- Screening programs: For early detection (e.g., mammograms, pap smears, low-dose CT for lung cancer).
Diagnosis
- Imaging: CT, MRI, PET-CT, and ultrasound for tumor visualization.
- Biopsy: Core or excisional biopsy for histopathological diagnosis.
- Molecular and genetic tests: Identify mutations for targeted therapy options.
Treatment Modalities
- Surgery: For localized cancers.
- Radiation therapy
- External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT): IMRT, IGRT, SBRT.
- Brachytherapy: Your area of expertise, used for gynecological, prostate, breast, and other cancers.

- Managing symptoms like pain, fatigue, and nausea.
- Psychological and emotional support for patients and families.
