Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy may be taken by mouth or it may be put into the body by injection. Either type of chemotherapy is called systemic treatment because the drugs enter the bloodstream, travel through the body, and can kill cancer cells throughout the body. Certain medications may be combined with other drugs to enhance their effects.

The following Crozer-Keystone hospitals offer chemotherapy services:
