Which statement would you expect to hear in teaching for intraarterial chemotherapy administration?

A catheter will be inserted and connected to a pump that will infuse your chemotherapy

Delivering chemotherapy directly into the artery feeding the tumor requires placing a catheter and connecting it to a pump that infuses the drug. This setup is what makes intraarterial chemotherapy possible, enabling a high local drug concentration at the tumor site while using controlled infusion. The other options describe routes that are not intraarterial: taking chemo as an oral pill is systemic and home-based, injecting into a muscle is intramuscular, and saying there’s no vascular access would make arterial delivery impossible.

Medication is taken orally as a pill at home

The chemotherapy is injected into a muscle

The treatment does not require any vascular access
