What happens during a consultation with a Radiation Oncologist?

During a consultation with a Radiation Oncologist, the doctor assesses the patient's medical history, discusses the type and stage of cancer, explains available radiation therapy options, and addresses any concerns. The oncologist works with the patient to develop the most appropriate treatment plan, including potential side effects and expected outcomes.

What conditions can be treated with radiation oncology?

Radiation oncology is used in treating various conditions, primarily cancer. It uses targeted radiation to damage or destroy cancer cells and prevent them from growing or dividing. Common conditions treated include:

  • Cancer: Such as breast, lung, prostate, and brain cancer.
  • Tumours: Radiation therapy can shrink or eliminate both cancerous and non-cancerous tumors.
  • Leukaemia: Radiation oncology may be used to prepare for a stem cell or bone marrow transplant in such cases.
  • Lymphoma: Radiation helps target and eliminate cancer cells in lymph nodes.
  • Metastatic Disease: Alleviate symptoms and control the spread of cancer to other parts of the body.
  • Non-Cancerous Conditions: Some non-cancerous conditions, like keloids or arteriovenous malformations, can also be treated with radiation therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Radiation oncologists treat a wide range of cancers, including but not limited to breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, head and neck cancer, brain tumors, and gynecological cancers.

Radiation therapy involves using high-energy radiation beams to target and destroy cancer cells. The treatment may be delivered externally using a machine called a linear accelerator (external beam radiation) or internally through implanting radioactive materials directly into or near the tumor (brachytherapy).

Radiation oncologists assess various factors, including the type, size, location, and stage of the cancer, as well as the patient's overall health and medical history. They use this information to develop a personalized treatment plan that maximizes the effectiveness of radiation therapy while minimizing side effects.

Common side effects of radiation therapy may include fatigue, skin irritation or burns at the treatment site, hair loss (in the treatment area), nausea, vomiting, and changes in appetite. However, side effects vary depending on the type and location of the cancer being treated and the individual's response to treatment.

The duration of radiation therapy treatment varies depending on the type of cancer, the treatment goals, and the specific treatment plan. Some patients may undergo radiation therapy for a few weeks, while others may require longer courses of treatment.

The consultation fees for a radiation oncologist in hyderabad can vary depending on the doctor's experience, reputation, and the clinic or hospital they are associated with. On average, the fees may range from INR 500 to INR 1200 or more for a consultation. It's advisable to check on www.skedoc.com for accurate information.
