When a patient is diagnosed with cancer, they may need medical treatment and specialized care for months or years. Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are the three main types of treatment that can be used alone or in combination. When cancer therapy isn't curative, it's critical to maintain the highest possible quality of life. Supportive and palliative care are vital for many patients, and this typically entails a wide range of professional services that go beyond oncology.
Cancer research identifies the causes of cancer and develops prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure strategies. Cancer research encompasses everything from epidemiology to molecular biology to the conduct of clinical studies to assess and compare the efficacy of various cancer treatments.
