The 80s/90s are trending on Instagram, so we thought, why not take a trip down memory lane and look at how cancer treatment has evolved?
From the treatment approaches available in the 1990s to the advances we have today in 2026, cancer care has come a long way.
In the 90s, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation were the main pillars of cancer treatment, with fewer options for precise diagnosis and personalised treatment.
Today, advances such as targeted therapies, immunotherapy, genetic and molecular testing, robotic and minimally invasive surgery, advanced radiation techniques and technologies like MR-Linac have expanded the way doctors diagnose and treat cancer.
This isn’t just a 90s trend. It’s a look at how science, technology and cancer care have evolved over the years.
