Given the growing number of publications in this field, it is difficult to keep up to date with the best scientific evidence continuously over time. The objective of this professional master’s degree is to fill the gap for professionals interested in the area, seeking to update and improve clinical practice and encourage research into the topics that are covered. 

The aforementioned technological advances, although decisive, are not in themselves the sole focus of Radiation Oncology. Technology is a complement to medicine and, above all, a tool for cancer treatment, and must be accompanied by careful clinical assessment based on clinical and biological knowledge of cancer. 

As a clinician, the radiation oncologist's role revolves around patient contact, but requires theoretical and practical knowledge and skills for the prescription and application of radiotherapy treatment. Hence, updating this knowledge is key to gaining a better view of each individual patient. 

The medical sciences, and therefore oncology, are constantly growing bodies of knowledge thanks to the information obtained through basic and translational research; the latter being a powerful flow of knowledge coming mainly from molecular biology to the clinic, changing our understanding of cancer, not only its diagnosis but treatment of the disease at all stages, with the ultimate goal of improving medical care. This professional master’s degree offers the opportunity to complement specialist knowledge with a detailed and updated review of the most relevant technological and conceptual advances in the field.
