Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cytotoxic medications, also known as chemotherapy, are used to kill cancer cells. Cryotherapy involves freezing tissues and is typically used for treating pre-cancerous or cancerous skin lesions. Radiologic medications are used in radiation therapy to kill cancer cells. Systolic refers to the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats, and is not a type of cancer medication.
