English-Estonian translations for oncology

• onkoloogia
  Paradoksaalselt ei ole Euroopa Liit veel senini kõikides liikmesriikides tutvustanud nii vastuvaidlematult olulist meditsiinieriala nagu onkoloogia. Paradoxically, the European Union has not yet introduced in all its Member States as undeniably important a topic as oncology.
  Onkoloogia kui eriala tunnustamine on midagi, mis on tõesti väga vajalik, kuid ma tooksin välja, et see tuleb ära teha liikmesriikidel. Recognition of oncology as a specialisation is something that is, indeed, very necessary, but I would point out that this is something for the Member States to do.
  Olgugi, et onkoloogia on interdistsiplinaarne eriala, on selle tunnustamine eraldiseisva erialana vajalik tingimus edukaks võitlemiseks selle haigusega. Although oncology is an interdisciplinary subject, its recognition as a subject in its own right is a necessary condition if we want to successfully fight this disease.
