Medical Oncology provides cancer drug therapy and cancer genomic medicine across organ types.

AboutAbout the lab
Delivering cancer drug therapy across organ types.
Medical Oncology is a clinical department at University of Tsukuba Hospital that provides internal medicine care centered on the diagnosis of patients with solid tumors and outpatient chemotherapy.
Working with organ-specific clinical departments, it also accepts patients who are suspected of having cancer but have no diagnosis, as well as patients whose primary tumor is unknown.
It also works on cancer genomic medicine. Together with the Department of Respiratory Medicine, it belongs to the North East Japan Study Group and takes part in clinical trials for lung cancer.
The lab says that Ibaraki Prefecture has few physicians who specialize in cancer drug therapy, and that it wants to put effort into educating medical students and young doctors as well.
