Urology
The urinary tract acts as our body’s drainage system for removing urine. The tract includes kidneys, ureters, and bladder. To urinate normally, the urinary tract needs to work together in the correct order. Urology is a part of health care that deals with diseases of the male and female urinary tract.

Oncologists can literally be referred to as cancer fighters, they help in diagnosis of the cancer, help in staging the cancer and grading the aggressive nature of the cancer. The most important diagnostic tool remains the clinical history of the patient. Common symptoms that point towards cancer include fatigue, weight loss, unexplained anemia, fever of unknown origin, blood in urine etc. Oncology depends on diagnostic tools like biopsy or removal of bits of the tumour tissue and examining it under the microscope. Other diagnostic tools include imaging studies like X-rays, CT scanning, MRI scanning, ultrasound and other radiological techniques.
