Often cancer treatment involves chemotherapy as part of the multi-modality approach of cancer care. Some tumors are exquisitely sensitive to specialized drugs, which are designed to combat the cancer at its site of origin and possibly its roots of spread. In fact, in some specific cancers, it is the sole treatment, which can provide a curative result. In other cancers, chemotherapy is used to enhance the treatment with radiation or surgery or to make an unresectable tumor surgically approachable. This powerful tool has to be given often in a very precise and timely manner in conjunction with other prescribed modalities.

The physical proximity of chemotherapy and radiation treatment units can make all the difference in the world, not only for convenience and practicality of delivering treatments, but as a well orchestrated instrument against cancer.
