RADIO-SENSITIZING CHEMOTHERAPY: If chemotherapy was provided as a radiosensitizer or radioprotectant DO NOT code as chemotherapy treatment. When chemotherapy is given for radiosensitization or radioprotection it is given in low doses that do not affect the cancer. Please review the treatment plan or reach out to the physicians administering treatment for confirmation.
