An oncologist is a doctor who treats cancer and provides medical care for a person diagnosed with cancer. The field of oncology has three major areas: medical, surgical, and radiation. A medical oncologist treats cancer using chemotherapy or other medications, such as targeted therapy or immunotherapy.
A surgical oncologist is a surgeon who has special training in treating cancer. Your surgical oncologist may be called in to diagnose cancer with a biopsy. Surgical oncologists also treat cancer by removing tumors or other cancerous tissue.
Imaging tests used in diagnosing cancer may include a computerized tomography (CT) scan, bone scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) scan, ultrasound and X-ray, among others. Biopsy. During a biopsy, your doctor collects a sample of cells for testing in the laboratory.
Nature of the work. The job is different to that of medical oncologists, who use non-radiological treatments for cancer. 85% of all clinical oncologists treat patients with a balance of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. They use both radiotherapy and also what is known as systemic therapy.
A hematologist-oncologist is a physician who specializes in the diagnosis,treatment and/or prevention of blood diseases and cancers such as iron-deficiency anemia, hemophilia, sickle-cell disease, leukemia and lymphoma.

What is the stage and grade in cancer disease and what's difference between them
Team ClinicSpotsreplied
16th April, 2019 at 04:20 pm
Hello Sunil,
When solid tumours are diagnosed, they are assigned as a grade and a stage. The grade of a tumour is the cancer grade which is an indication of how quickly it is likely to spread and grow and the stage of a solid tumour refers to its size or extent and whether or not it has spread to other organs and tissues.
The various stages of cancer are as follows:
Stage 0- It means there’s no cancer, only abnormal cells with the potential to become cancer.
Stage 1- It means the cancer is small and only in one area.
Stage 2- It means the cancer is larger and has grown into nearby tissues or lymph nodes.
Stage 4-The cancer has spread to other parts of our body. It’s also called advanced or metastatic cancer.
The various grades of cancer are as follows:
Grade 1- The cancer cells resemble normal cells and is not growing rapidly.
Grade 2- Cancer cells that don’t look like normal cells and are growing faster than normal cells.
Grade 3- Cancer cells that look abnormal and may grow or spread more aggressively.
Hope this information was useful and helpful to you and has resolved your query.

Hello Parvinder,
I am assuming that you are talking about the increase of broncho vascular markings in the lungs. It indicates that the pH level in your lungs goes below 7.3 and it can cause the enlargement of the heart (Cardiomegaly). So I would advise you to meet your local Pulmonologist.

My sister 51 suffering fro Lungs Cancer
Biopsy done found cancer in lungs , please suggest the best near Raipur CG , and also about the expanses in hospitol
Team ClinicSpotsreplied
18th March, 2019 at 03:10 pm
Hello Chandrashekar, the closest metropolitan city to Raipur is Mumbai. My opinion to you would be that you shouldn't get your sister's treatment done in B Grade Cities because of the following reasons:
1) They wont have very experienced doctors.
2) They would lack the advanced technologies that hospitals in major metro cities like Mumbai would have.
3) They don't have good clinical results on cancer patients.
If you want to get treated in Mumbai, you have options according to your preferences. If you are looking for an economical option and don't mind a long waiting time then Tata Memorial Centre(Parel) is where you should go.
If you can afford costly treatment and don't want to compromise on the quality of treatment then go for Fortis Hospital (Mulund) or S L Raheja Hospital (Mahim). In Fortis Hospital and S L Raheja Hospital you can consult Padma Shri, Dr. Suresh Advani who has over 45 years of experience.
Regarding the cost of treatment, we cannot tell you exactly how much it costs as it depends on what type of treatment your sister will receive. She might receive chemotherapy, radiation therapy or a combination of both. So you will know about the cost after the doctor decides what treatment she will have to undergo.
