YOGYAKARTA Although cancer cells are very dangerous, the potential for recovery still exists. Healing can occur because cancer cells die. In the medical world, conditions that explain the loss of cancer in a person are called cancer remissions. These conditions occur due to various things, especially due to a series of treatments that have a good impact.
Monitoring of the development of cancer cells can be done through imaging tools used in the medical world, using CT Scan, MRI, and other technologies. Doctors will observe whether or not there is a change in mass and volume of tumors.
Patients who have cancer cells are said to improve if they meet several criteria, namely as follows.
It should be noted that cancer always comes from malignant tumors. After a series of treatments, doctors will continue to monitor tumor growth. If the tumor size tends to shrink, cancer cells are most likely dead.
A person who has cancer cells usually has certain clinical symptoms that can be felt by both the patient himself and the doctor. For example, people with brain cancer will experience headaches, nausea, and so on.
Clinical symptoms felt by patients are very likely to decrease and even disappear. When that happens, it is likely that cancer cells will disappear and even die.
Biomarkers are the size used in clinical assessments. This size can be seen from blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and so on.
In the case of patients with cancer, doctors often monitor certain biomarkers in the blood. For example, doctors will monitor prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in patients with prostate cancer.
If biomarker levels are found to drop, there is a possibility that the series of treatments carried out will be successful so that cancer cells in the body die.
It should be noted that cancer can have remission status in a matter of months to years. The duration of the remission phase can be different for each person depending on many things such as severity to the cancer response to treatment.
Doctors will try to carry out maintenance therapy so that cancer can continue to be in remission conditions as long as and as much as possible. To get these results, patients are also required to control and undergo treatment and treatment.
During treatment, doctors will continue to monitor health conditions and the development of cancer cells. In addition, doctors can also immediately take medical action as quickly as possible if during the treatment process, cancer cells develop.
Medical decisions will soon be taken so that the growth of cancer cells can be suppressed as much as possible. The longer medical action is taken, the more health conditions will decrease and cancer cells will get out of control.
