Subject: CHOP chemotherapy 
 
 I am currently researching this topic but thought maybe a more experienced oncology MT might be able to better summarize this for me.    
What is CHOP chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma?  
Have CHOP-8 and I believe 8-CHOP chemotherapy dictated.

1.2 mg IN 12 cc of chemotherapy 
Subject: 1.2 mg IN 12 cc of chemotherapy 
  You heard it right.  It is "1.2 mg IN 12 cc of chemotherapy."   
 
It basically means the patient received 1.2 mg of a particular chemotherapeutic agent (which would be "specific" to her malignancy and which would be documented in her medical record/chart), mixed in 12 ml of a solvent which could be normal saline/dextrose water/or others, so that that particular chemotherapeutic agent that she is on, can be administered to her in the form of an injection.

chemotherapy drug - tesplatin?? 
Subject: chemotherapy drug - tesplatin?? 
 
 The doc first states in history that "The patient was admitted at this time to start his chemotherapy regimen with BEP.  
   
Then he states, "The patient was started on cycle #1 of bleomycin, etoposide and TESPLATIN?  
   
So may be I am hearing BEP wrong and should be BET? because I am hearing TESPLATIN?  
   
The patient has testicular cancer if that helps.
