Dr Paul De Ieso

MBBS, FRANZCR

  • Radiation Oncologist

Biography

I provide a thoughtful, patient-centred radiation oncology service which focuses on using a strong evidence base to direct clinical decision-making. I pride myself on building strong and lasting relationships with my patients by listening to their concerns and keeping them well informed throughout their cancer journey.

Dr Paul De Ieso is an experienced radiation oncologist consulting at Icon Cancer Centre Mulgrave, Richmond, Freemasons and Moreland. In 2000, he completed his Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degree at the University of Adelaide and became a fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR) in 2009. Dr De Ieso completed specialist oncology training in London; he was awarded the RANZCR Windeyer Fellowship at Mount Vernon Cancer Centre and completed a three year Fellowship at the Royal Marsden Hospital. During his time in London, Dr De Ieso fostered strong professional relationships with medical and radiation oncologists that evolved into scientific publication and clinical collaborations.

In 2013, Dr De Ieso commenced his radiation oncology career in Darwin, providing much needed radiation oncology services to the people of the Top End of Australia. During his role, he provided satellite services to Alice Springs and was lead clinician for the introduction of the Northern Territory prospective prostate cancer clinical registry. He also was clinical lead for the introduction of Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) techniques for breast cancer patients requiring radiation therapy.

With a number of first and co-authored cancer-related publications, involving various tumour sites, Dr De Ieso has a special interest in skin cancer, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, urological cancers and soft tissue sarcomas. He is also passionate about the use of advanced radiation therapy technologies to reduce the side effects of therapy while optimising patient outcomes.
