Focused Anatomy
These anatomy topics cover common sites seen in radiation oncology practice. These are: Breast, Prostate, Lung, Head and Neck and Skin. A very detailed knowledge of the structure (both macro- and microscopic), relations, function and neurovascular supply is required. For each site there are areas of detailed knowledge and areas of general knowledge that are required.
