Treatments for Cancer
Nuclear Medicine - This is a procedure that doctors use to diagnose cancer, investigate blood circulation and evaluate disorders in organs. Nuclear Medicine uses radioisotopes to provide images of how tissues or organs function. A radioisotope is a radioactive element that emits radiation, the radioisotope is attached to a computer that has the ability to detect radiation and convert it to an image.
Organ Transplant
Organ Transplant - The operation of moving an organ from an organism other known as, the donor to another organism, other known as, the recipient. Organ transplant has the ability to cure cancer at its' earliest stages. It will only help if the cancer has not spread throughout the body yet and can only replace certain parts of the human body by organ transplant. For example, Organ Transplant can stop Colorectal cancer, other known as colon cancer.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy - This is the treatment of diseases by using chemical substances. Chemotherapy has the ability to cure cancer because it kills every single cell in the body. They do this in order to stop the cancerous cells from reproducing and it will wipe out all the cancer cells in the end. Chemotherapy will take time to work and you will need to take medical for a long time. (Few months) When one person is taking chemotherapy to cure a disease like cancer, it will make the person feel very weak because the cells in their body is dying.
Radiotheraphy
Radiotherapy - The treatment of diseases by exposure to radiation. Radiotherapy uses radiation to injure or kill cancerous cells so they cannot reproduce any more. While radiation does affect all the cells in the body, normal cells tend to resist or recover from the effects from radiation much more quickly and efficiently than cancer cells.
