Hello.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic forum.
The sessions of chemotherapy are dependent on the extent of tumor and the extent of its spread and the extent of secondary lesions detected.After completing the course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy it is advisable to undergo relevant investigations every six months to see any further growth.
