Simply Oncology
Welcome to Simply Oncology.
Cancer is daunting for both patients and for clinical teams.
Dr John McGrane and Dr Michael Rowe are oncologists who want to break down the complex parts of cancer care into clear and simple sessions.
We will dive deep into the world of cancer research, patient stories and the latest cancer breakthroughs.
Simply Oncology will have patient focused episodes along with episodes that allow anyone with an interest in oncology to stay up to date.
We hope you join us as we unpick all parts of cancer.

Episode 21: In the Clinic - Discussing bone health in prostate cancer with Dr Xue-Yan Jiang
Approximately 1 in 10 metastatic prostate cancer patients develop osteoporotic fractures.
Whilst treatment for prostate cancer has meant patient are living longer we have to make sure they are also living better.
Testosterone removal, Androgen receptor targeted agents and steroids can all reduce bone strength.
We talk to Dr Xue-Yan Jiang who is part of a group preparing guidelines for bone health through the Royal College of Radiologists and British Association of Urological Surgeons.
We hope you enjoy.
