If a RadOnc trainee wanted to expand one's skillset to also be able to administer systemic therapy (without doing IM + Heme/Onc) would something like a Neuro-Oncology fellowship be the fastest way?
From Stanford's neuro-oncology fellowship page:
"We will also consider applicants who have completed training in medical oncology, pediatric oncology, neurosurgery, or radiation oncology on a case by case basis."
https://med.stanford.edu/neurology/divisions/neurooncology/fellowship.html
Could anyone weigh in on the advantages/disadvantages of doing something like this? The motivation would at least partly lie in a fascination with radiation oncology, but also wanting an "out" or at least additional options in case the job market/demand for RT became untenable.
