针 活组织检查 是否对诊断有效，是否被普遍推荐. 影像学研究包括 计算机断层扫描 or 核磁共振成像 帮助描绘肿瘤的范围和颈部淋巴结的状态.

治疗

手术

手术 is the mainstay of treatment for salivary gland cancers. The extent of surgery depends upon tumor type, size and location. A neck dissection is performed for removal of neck lymph nodes if they harbor tumor spread.

放射治疗

放射治疗, 也叫放射治疗, is the use of high-energy rays to damage cancer cells and stop them from growing. 和手术一样，放射治疗也是局部治疗. 它只影响治疗区域的细胞. The energy may come from a large machine, or external radiation.

病人 with large tumors may need both surgery and radiation therapy. 放射治疗 is given after surgery for advanced or aggressive tumors.

化疗

化疗是使用药物杀死癌细胞. Researchers are looking for effective drugs or drug combinations to treat salivary gland cancer. They are also exploring ways to combine chemotherapy with other forms of cancer treatment to help destroy the tumor and prevent the disease from spreading.

化疗 is given at the time of radiation therapy in select tumors, 通常是在治疗性临床试验的背景下. 化疗 is sometimes recommended if the cancer has spread to other locations in the body.
