Cancer may be diagnosed through clinical examination, blood tests, imaging scans, biopsy, and other tests based on the suspected cancer type.

What is chemotherapy?

Chemotherapy uses medicines to destroy or control cancer cells. It may be given alone or with surgery, radiation, or other treatments.
