2. Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out-of-control cell growth, and lung cancer occurs when this
uncontrolled cell growth begins in one or both lungs. Rather than developing into healthy, normal lung tissue,

Early lung cancer may not cause any symptoms. Symptoms depend on the type of cancer you have, but may
include:
 Chestpain
 Coughthatdoesn'tgoaway
 Coughingupblood
 Fatigue
 Losingweightwithouttrying
 Lossofappetite
 Shortnessofbreath&Wheezing
Physicians use information revealed by symptoms as well as several other procedures in order to diagnose lung
cancer. Common imaging techniques include chest X-rays, bronchoscopy (a thin tube with a camera on one
end), CT scans, MRI scans, and PET scans. Physicians will also conduct a physical examination, a chest
examination, and an analysis of blood in the sputum. All of these procedures are designed to detect where the
tumorislocatedandwhatadditionalorgansmaybeaffectedbyit.
Lung cancer treatments depend on the type of cancer, the stage of the cancer (how much it has spread), age,
health status, and additional personal characteristics. As there is usually no single treatment for cancer, patients
often receive a combination of therapies and palliative care. The main lung cancer treatments are surgery,
chemotherapy, and/or radiation. However, there also have been recent developments in the fields of
immunotherapy,hormonetherapy,andgenetherapy.

oncologists. We also have most advanced radiotherapy machine (true beam STx) which is first in Asia pacific.
