什么是CAM？除了许多癌症治疗方法，从手术、放射治疗到化疗或免疫治疗，数百万人寻求更多的选择作为CAM。术语补充医学指的是不属于传统医疗护理的干预措施，但同时提供，作为它们的补充。替代医学用其他方法取代了标准的抗癌治疗，这些方法可能包括补充剂、抗癌饮食、改变生活方式，有时还包括其他干预措施。有广泛的干预措施属于CAM的范畴。这些可能包括古老的医学传统，如阿育吠陀或东方医学，针灸，灵气，瑜伽或冥想，饮食，草药，营养补充剂，等等。
What Is CAM? Along with the many cancer treatment approaches ranging from surgery and radiation to chemotherapy or immunotherapy, millions of people seek additional options as CAM. The term complementary medicine refers to interventions that are not part of conventional medical care but are delivered alongside, as a complement to them. Alternative medicine replaces standard anticancer treatments with other approaches that may include supplements, diets developed to combat cancer, lifestyle changes, and sometimes other interventions. There are a broad range of interventions that fall under the realm of CAM. These may include ancient medicine traditions such as Ayurvedic or Oriental medicine, acupuncture, Reiki, yoga or meditation, diets, herbs, nutritional supplements, and more.
