Medical and Clinical Oncology journal publishes articles addressing Medical oncology, Surgical oncology, Radiotherapy, Paediatric oncology, Psycho-oncology, Clinical oncology, basic research and the comprehensive management of patients with malignant diseases.
Our Journal accepts various formats of literary works such as Research articles, Reviews, abstracts, addendums, announcements, article-commentaries, book reviews, rapid communications, letters to the editor, annual meeting abstracts, conference proceedings, calendars, case-reports, corrections, discussions, meeting-reports, news, obituaries, orations, product reviews, hypotheses and analyses. We are delighted to invite Eminent Scientists, Academicians and Researchers to submit their original research articles for publication.www.scholarscentral.org/submissions/research-reviews-medical-clinical-oncology.html or send as an e-mail attachment to the Editorial Office at manuscripts@rroij.com
Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):
Research & Reviews: Medical and Clinical Oncology is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.
Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.
The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.
Gynaecologic oncology is specialized field of oncology that deals with the cancers of female reproductive system which includes uterine cancer, vaginal cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer to name a few
Clinical Oncology deals with the nonsurgical aspects of cancer, including therapeutic administration of ionising radiation (radiotherapy) and chemotherapy. Clinical oncologists determine which treatment to use by considering a range of factors including tumour type, the site of the tumour, the stage of the disease and the patient’s general health.
Medical Oncology as the term suggests deals with treatment of cancer with Chemotherapy: use of drugs to kill cancer cells, Targeted therapy: use of drugs to block the growth & progression of cancer cells by interfering with molecules involved in growth and development of cancer cells, Immunotherapy: deals with boosting body's immune system to deal with cancer and Hormonal therapy: drugs are used to block the effect of hormones that are used by cancer cells for their growth & development.
Surgical Oncology deals with the surgical treatment of cancer and tumours. It is also used to diagnose certain cancers. Surgical treatment of cancer depends on various factors such as size, type, location and stage of the tumours well as general health factors of the candidate patient. Surgical treatment is often combined with chemotherapy, radiation or hormone therapy either before or after surgery to ease the treatment process.
Neuro-Oncology is the study of tumours of brain and spinal cord, many of which are dangerous and life threatening and mostly incurable. Diagnostic process commonly used is CT and MRI. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy is mostly used for treatment of brain tumours. Surgery in some cases is curative but malignant brain tumours have the tendency to regenerate.
Radiotherapy is the utilisation of high energy radiation to damage DNA of cancer cells eventually killing them. It is very useful in treating incurable cancer, alone or in combination with chemotherapy. It reduces the size of tumour or removes any traces of it after surgery. It is given in two different ways either from outside or inside the body. Common side effects include: hair loss, soreness of skin, nausea, infertility, etc.
Paediatric Oncology is the branch of oncology that deals with diagnosis and treatment of cancer including leukaemia, lymphomas, brain tumors, bone tumors, and solid tumors in children and teenage. Children and teens are in growing phase and they have different needs too. They are not always patient and cooperative. A paediatric oncologist knows how to examine and treat young children and teens in a way that makes them relaxed and cooperative.
Cellular Oncology includes essential and translational tumour research on the cell and tissue level, specialized and bioinformatics improvements around there, and clinical applications. This incorporates an assortment of fields like genome innovation, smaller scale clusters and other high-throughput methods, genomic precariousness, SNP, DNA methylation, flagging pathways, DNA association, (sub) microscopic imaging, proteomics, bioinformatics, utilitarian impacts of genomics, atomic diagnostics and focused on growth treatments, etc.
Molecular Oncology is an interdisciplinary medical speciality at the interface of medicinal chemistry and oncology that refers to the investigation of the chemistry of cancer and tumors at the molecular scale. Molecular Oncology highlights new discoveries, approaches, as well as technical developments, in basic, clinical and discovery-driven translational research.
Psycho-oncology deals with the study and practice of cancer at the level of lifestyle and psychology. It is concerned with aspects of cancer that go beyond medical treatment and include lifestyle, psychological and social aspects of cancer. Sometimes it is also referred to as psychosocial oncology or behavioural oncology because it deals with psychosocial and behavioural topics. The field is concerned both with the effects of cancer on a person's psychological health as well as the social and behavioural factors that may affect the disease process of cancer and/or the remission of it.
