Treatment

Surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy and chemotherapy are the most common treatments for breast cancer.

Local and Systemic Therapy
Local therapies such as surgery and radiation are used to treat the main or primary breast tumour. Systemic therapies such as chemotherapy and hormonal therapy are given through the bloodstream to reach cancer cells that may have spread beyond the breast.
