Procedures Supporting Oncology Treatment

Procedures supporting oncology treatment refer to various medical interventions that aid in the diagnosis, staging, and management of cancer. These procedures play a crucial role in determining the extent and type of cancer, guiding treatment decisions, and monitoring treatment effectiveness. Some common procedures supporting oncology treatment include biopsies, imaging studies (such as CT scans, MRI, PET scans), endoscopy, bone marrow aspiration, and genetic testing. These procedures help oncologists develop personalized treatment plans and improve patient outcomes.
