What happens when cancer scans show growth after being off treatment?

When scans show growth after a treatment break, oncologists typically review the timeline and circumstances to determine the best next steps. Since treatment interruptions due to low blood counts are common and sometimes necessary for patient safety, your medical team will likely consider restarting or adjusting your treatment plan based on your current health status and the scan results. This situation is something your care team has experience managing, so discussing your concerns and questions about moving forward will help you understand your specific options.
