Radiation oncology, here’s the start,
Multidisciplinary teams, they play a part.
Cancer care from all around,
Together we fight, on solid ground.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.

Radiation therapy, what it is,
Local treatment, X-rays give a fizz.
Photons and electrons, they’re the tools,
To kill the cancer cells, follow the rules.

External beam, from outside in,
Linear accelerator, where we begin.
Non-invasive, most common kind,
Advancements made, we’ve refined.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.

Internal brachytherapy, source inside,
Near the tumour, where it resides.
High doses delivered, close and tight,
For deep-seated tumours, it's the fight.

Systemic treatment, ingested form,
For thyroid cancer, it's the norm.
Isolated inpatients, care is prime,
Till the Geiger counter says it's time.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.

How it works, let’s break it down,
Damaging DNA, cancer cells drown.
Direct or indirect, through free radicals too,
Immediate or delayed, death comes through.

Fractionation spreads the dose,
Daily small amounts, that’s how it goes.
Normal tissues repair, cancer cells fall,
Four R’s guide us, that’s the call.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.

Radiosurgery, high dose, few hits,
For palliative care, it often fits.
Minimal normal tissue, high precision game,
Technology advances, that’s the aim.

Toxicity’s a factor, acute and late,
Localised effects, we mitigate.
Fatigue, inflammation, we manage with care,
To improve quality of life, we’re always there.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.

Radiation oncologist, what they do,
Specialists in cancer, through and through.
From diagnosis to treatment plan,
Overseeing care, they lead the clan.

Outpatient clinics, planning sessions too,
Multidisciplinary meetings, what they pursue.
Radiotherapy plans, they design,
Ensuring each patient’s care is fine.

Follow up closely, till toxicity’s clear,
Every three months, for five years near.
Clinical exams, sometimes more,
To catch recurrence, we explore.

Radiation oncology, a crucial part,
In the multidisciplinary cancer care chart.
Advances made, technology bright,
In the fight against cancer, we bring the light.

(Chorus)
Radiation therapy, shining the light,
Targeting cancer, day and night.
With precision and care, we deliver right,
In the fight against cancer, we unite.
