Dr. Folkman had a theory that the progression of tumors could be arrested by cutting off their source of nourishment.

Some examples in this group are the Gynecologic Hospitals, or Maternities, Children Hospitals, Geriatric Hospitals, and Oncology Institutes.

Further radiation treatment will further damage normal tissue, and the tumor might be resistant to further radiation.
