What can chemotherapy do to treat thyroid cancer?
Chemotherapy is used to reduce the chance that thyroid cancer will spread to other parts of the body. Chemotherapy may be given after surgery to reduce this chance. If given after surgery, it is called adjuvant chemotherapy. In thyroid cancer, chemotherapy is less effective and usually used when the cancer has spread or has not responded to the radioiodine treatment.[Source]Keywords: thyroid cancer thyroid cancer treatment
