Allogeneic bone marrow transplant
procedure involving an infusion of bone marrow or stem cells from a donor that are given to the
patient after they have received high-dose chemotherapy
Autologous bone marrow transplant

received high-dose chemotherapy
Autologous stem cell transplantation

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT)
form of radiation therapy in which a substance that contains boron is injected into a blood vessel. The
boron collects in the tumor cells. The patient then receives radiation therapy with atomic particles
called neutrons. the neutrons react with the boron to kill the tumor cells without harming normal
cells.
Radioembolization
form of radiation therapy that involves the use of tiny beads that hold the radioisotope yttrium 90 (Y
90) which are injected into an artery. The beads collect in the tumor and the yttrium 90 (Y 90) gives
off radiation. This destroys the blood vessel that the tumor needs to grow and kills the cancer cells.
Radioimmunotherapy
form of radiation therapy in which the radioactive substance is linked to an antibody that locates and
kills tumor cells when injected into the body.
Chemoembolization (also referred to as TACE and transarterial chemoembolization)
procedure in which the blood supply to a tumor is blocked after anticancer drugs are given in blood
vessels near the tumor
Percutaneous biopsy

Excisional biopsy

Bolus

therapeutic concentration in the bloodstream
Boost

Infusion

means of gravity flow
Frozen section
a sliver of frozen biopsy tissue that provides a quick preliminary diagnosis, but is not 100 percent
reliable
Permanent section
biopsy tissue specially prepared and mounted on slides so that it can be examined under a
microscope by a pathologist
Ultrasound energy
form of therapy that involves intensified sound waves that can be directed at cancer cells to heat and
kill them
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)
a tumor marker that may be included in blood chemistry screening panel. It is used to help detect
liver disease or bone disorders.
Thoracoscope
