Q: Which is better chemotherapy or radiation therapy?

Both chemotherapy and radiation therapy have their own benefits. Usually, chemotherapy is given after successful onco-surgeries to uniformly kill cancer cells in the body via drugs.

Radiation therapy can be given right from the early stage to later advanced stages of cancer. At the early stages, it is mostly given to shrink the tumour size before operating. At later stages, it is recommended to arrest and kill cancer cells inside the body.
