d. Chemotherapeutic agents .....ANSWER..... c. Early detection
Early detection of cancer, while it remains localized, is associated
with the best prognosis for a cure. The majority of patients with
solid tumors are treated surgically, which can be curative in some
localized cancers. Ionizing radiation is used for two principal
reasons: to kill tumor cells that are not resectable because they
are located in a vital or inaccessible area, and to kill tumor cells
that may have escaped the surgeon's knife and remain
undetected in the local area. Chemotherapeutic agents are not
selective for tumor cells, and a certain amount of normal cell
death also occurs.
