Oncology: a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist. It includes medical oncology (the use of chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and other drugs to treat cancer), radiation oncology (the use of radiation therapy to treat cancer), and surgical oncology (the use of surgery and other procedures to treat cancer).
Transcriptional profiling of the tumor microenvironment can lead to insights about the interaction between the tumor and immune system. This facilitates investigation of immune evasion mechan...
