Patients who were diagnosed to have a locally advanced cancer should be initially presented to Radiation Oncology Department in KCCC. Complete and efficient examination with appropriate investigations is important for correct plan of management. To ensure a precise and evidence-based practice, protocols are made for different clinical scenarios with some tailoring of treatment according to the patient condition. Every treatment decision passed through a multidisciplinary group meeting that was held by the different units of the radiation oncology departments with the other hospital departments including the medical, surgical, pathology, and radiology departments.

Multidisciplinary Approach

To ensure a precise and evidence-based practice, protocols are made for different clinical scenarios. However treatment individualization is tailored according to the patient condition. This is made possible through multidisciplinary group meetings held by the different units of the radiation oncology departments with the other hospital departments including the medical, surgical, pathology, and radiology departments. Specialists from all units also take part in combined oncology meetings in peripheral hospitals regularly. After the appropriate plan of treatment is placed, the patient is started promptly on his journey to cure.

We work in close collaboration with the Kuwait Cancer Society. Regular specialized workshops are held all over the year, not only intended for improving the caliber of the department, but also on enlightening Kuwait’s medical community.
We strive to improve the progress of the department regarding machines, equipment, software, and even infrastructure. This is implemented by the hard work and dedication of its Executive Task Force committees. The radiation oncology department is extremely dedicated in continuing its involvement in research. We endeavor, and have succeeded in the publication of several papers in local and esteemed international journals.
