Why do radiation oncologists need to give lectures to their colleagues in internal medicine

An article by Narek Shaverdian, Radiation Oncologist at Memorial Sloan Cancer Center, was recently mentioned by  Drew Moghanaki, Professor and Chief of Thoracic Oncology at the Department of Radiation Oncology of UCLA, on X:

“Why do radiation oncologists need to make time to give lectures to their colleagues in internal medicine?

It’s because of the survey findings published in 2017 by a study team at UCLA demonstrating how they think about treatment options for their patients with medically inoperable stage I NSCLC that includes ‘chemo’, ‘palliation’, and ‘unsure’.”
