Spotlight on interventional oncology

Much of the available literature discussing the topic defines interventional oncology as the fourth pillar of cancer therapy, where it stands alongside medical, surgical and radiation oncology. Over the coming weeks on Oncology Central we will be carrying out a Spotlight event looking further into the field of interventional oncology. This Spotlight will take an overarching view and aim to review this discipline from benchside to bedside.
