THE MISSION
Surgery is a fundamental pillar of cancer
treatment involving the physical removal of
tumors and cancerous tissue from the body. It
plays a crucial role in diagnosing, staging, and
treating various types of cancers. Depending on
the cancer's location, size, and stage, different
surgical procedures are employed, ranging from
minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy to
more extensive open surgeries.

RADIATION THERAPY
Radiation therapy is a targeted approach to
cancer treatment that utilizes high-energy rays
or particles to destroy or damage cancer cells.
It is a non-invasive procedure that can be
administered externally through machines like
linear accelerators, or internally using sources
implanted directly within or near the tumor site.

CHEMOTHERAPY
  • Chemotherapy is a systemic cancer treatment that
    employs powerful drugs to halt the growth and
    division of rapidly multiplying cancer cells.
    Administered through various methods such as oral
    pills, injections, or intravenous infusions,
    chemotherapy circulates throughout the body,
    targeting cancer cells wherever they may be.
    While chemotherapy can effectively target cancer
    cells, it may also affect healthy cells that
    divide quickly, leading to side effects such as
    hair loss, nausea, and weakened immune function.

IMMUNOTHERAPY
  • Chemotherapy can be used as the primary
    treatment, to shrink tumors before surgery or
    radiation therapy, or to control advanced cancer
    and alleviate symptoms. It is often part of a
    multidisciplinary approach, complementing other
    treatments to maximize the chances of remission
    and improve the patient's quality of life.

CONCLUSION
The diverse landscape of cancer treatment offers
a range of strategies tailored to the unique
characteristics of each individual and their
specific cancer type. From traditional methods
like surgery, which physically removes tumors, to
advanced approaches like immunotherapy, which
harnesses the body's immune system, each
treatment modality has its own strengths and
considerations
By exploring and understanding these various
options, patients, caregivers, and healthcare
professionals can collaborate to make informed
decisions that optimize the chances of successful
outcomes and improved quality of life for those
battling cancer.
