Oncology
Oncology is a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer.
A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist.
Cancer survival has improved due to three main components: improved prevention efforts to reduce exposure to risk factors (e.g., tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption), improved screening of several cancers (allowing for earlier diagnosis), and improvements in treatment.
