The cost of one course of chemotherapy for gastric cancer

Chemotherapy is one of the treatments for cancer. It is a treatment method that uses various rays of different energies to irradiate tumors to inhibit and kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy can be used alone or in combination with surgery and chemotherapy. As part of comprehensive treatment, chemotherapy can be performed before surgery to reduce the size of the tumor, so that patients who were originally unable to undergo surgery can have the opportunity to undergo surgery. Palliative chemotherapy can be used to relieve pressure and relieve pain in advanced cancer.

The chemotherapy depends on the condition of the patient. Generally, a whole chemotherapy session takes one month, and the required chemotherapy time is about 20 days. A chemotherapy course is generally 4 to 5 weeks, divided into general radiotherapy, 3D conformal radiotherapy, and intensity modulated radiotherapy, and the prices vary, about 10,000, more than 30,000, and more than 50,000 respectively.

Therefore, for cancers that are clearly diagnosed by pathology, chemotherapy can be considered in combination with the patient's clinical stage. The cost of a chemotherapy course cannot be given an accurate answer, because it needs to be determined based on the patient's actual situation. The patient's disease type, degree of illness, physical condition, etc. will directly determine the cost of treatment, so patients must maintain a relatively good state in all aspects to reduce treatment costs!
