A radiation oncologist is a physician who specializes in treating cancer using radiation therapy, including high-energy radiation and/or radioactive substances. A radiation oncologist will determine the precise type, dose and placement of radiation, administer the radiation, and monitor the number and length of treatments. Radiation therapy may come from a machine outside the body (external radiation) or from radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor (internal radiation).
