Cancer (click for worldwide facilities list): Cancer is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth, intrusion and destruction of adjacent tissues, and sometimes metastasis where it spreads to other locations in the body via lymph or blood. These three malignant properties of cancers differentiate them from benign tumors. Most cancers form a tumor but some, like leukemia, do not. The branch of medicine concerned with the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer is oncology.
Most cancers are diagnosed by biopsy. Depending on the location of the tumor, the biopsy may be a simple procedure or a serious operation. Often the initial indication of malignancy will be symptoms or radiographic imaging abnormalities.
Most cancers can be treated and some cured, depending on the specific type, location, and stage. Once diagnosed, cancer is usually treated with a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. As research develops, treatments are becoming more specific for different varieties of cancer. There has been significant progress in the development of targeted therapy drugs that act specifically on detectable molecular abnormalities in certain tumors, and which minimize damage to normal cells. The prognosis of cancer patients is most influenced by the type of cancer, as well as the stage, or extent of the disease.
