Summary:
This reflects the fact that this treatment modality is now the standard of care for a variety of cancers, including 10-20,000 cases/year of various forms of leukemia, multiple myeloma, Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, etc. High-dosage chemotherapy is now also used in advanced cases of breast cancer. It is now being done by private practitioners in most of the hospitals in the country from the community hospital on up.
