Conventional Oncology: Standard Treatments and Limitations
Conventional oncology encompasses treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation therapy. These treatments are widely used and have shown results, leading to decreased cancer death rates. However, they are not universally effective and may cause significant side effects.
