    Glossary Cancer Therapy

    medical interventions aimed at treating and managing cancer

    Cancer Therapy, also known as Cancer Treatment or Oncological Therapy, encompasses a range of medical interventions aimed at treating cancer. These treatments can include surgery to remove tumors, chemotherapy to kill cancer cells, radiation therapy to target specific areas, immunotherapy to boost the body's natural defenses, and targeted therapy that focuses on specific molecules involved in cancer growth. The choice of therapy depends on the type, location, and stage of the cancer, as well as the patient's overall health.
