Cancer
Cancer occurs when cells divide uncontrollably and form tumors. There are five main types of cancer classified by the tissue affected: carcinomas (skin, lung), melanomas (skin), sarcomas (muscle, connective tissue), leukemias (blood), and lymphomas (lymph nodes). Cancer is caused by carcinogens like tobacco smoke, sunlight, alcohol, and radiation. Common signs are changes in bowel or bladder habits, unusual bleeding or lumps. Treatments include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and cancer can be considered cured after 5 years without reoccurrence.
Cancer is Curable if Detected Early
Cancer is caused by uncontrolled cell growth that forms tumors. There are several major types of cancer that form in different parts of the body. Cancer develops over many years due to disruptions to cell DNA from factors like diet, tobacco, chemicals and more. Symptoms vary depending on the cancer type and location but can include lumps, swelling, pain, and issues like fatigue. Treatment aims to cure the patient or control the disease and may involve surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormone or immunotherapy either alone or in combination. Some specific cancer types discussed include bone cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, and head and neck cancer.
Adrenal cancer
Adrenal cancer is a rare cancer that begins in the small adrenal glands located above the kidneys. It can occur at any age but is most common in children under 5 and adults in their 40s and 50s. While adrenal cancer can sometimes be cured if found early, the chances of cure decrease if it has spread beyond the adrenal glands. Treatment options include surgery to remove the adrenal gland, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.

What is breast cancer
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast grow abnormally and can spread to other parts of the body. It is the most common cancer among women. Risk factors include gender and age, as breast cancer occurs mostly in women and risk increases with age. While there is no sure way to prevent breast cancer, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and avoiding smoking may help reduce risk. Treatment options include surgery to remove cancerous tissue, radiation therapy to destroy remaining cancer cells, and chemotherapy which uses medication to destroy cancer cells throughout the body.

Prostate cancer cause defined symptom risk factors
The document discusses prostate cancer, including its definition as a cancer that develops in the prostate gland, which produces seminal fluid. It notes that prostate cancer is a prevalent form of cancer that is usually slow-forming and remains confined to the prostate gland, allowing for better treatment success if discovered early. It describes symptoms, risk factors like age and family history, screening tests like the PSA test and digital rectal exam, stages of prostate cancer, types of standard treatment including watchful waiting, surgery, radiation, and hormone therapy, latest clinical trials, and potential side effects of treatment.
Cancer its cause and cure
Cancer is a leading cause of deaths among men and women in the world, hence regular screening proves to be beneficial in diagnosing cancer at an early stage. Because of the early detection of cancer, patients can be treated and the chances of survival increases. Below discussed are some of the common forms of cancer.
Mammography
Mammography is an x-ray exam used to detect breast cancer. Modern mammography machines use low doses of radiation that are considered safe. Screening mammograms are used to check women without symptoms, while diagnostic mammograms examine potential abnormalities. Mammograms produce images of breast tissue that radiologists analyze for signs of cancer such as masses or microcalcifications. While mammography is an important cancer screening tool, it has limitations like false negatives and overdiagnosis. Newer digital mammography techniques aim to improve cancer detection rates.
Lungs Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death for men and women. Tobacco use accounts for 87% of lung cancers. There are two main types of lung cancer - non-small cell lung cancer (87%) and small cell lung cancer (13%) - which grow and spread differently and require different treatments. Cigarette smoking is by far the greatest risk factor for lung cancer, while quitting smoking can reduce risks over time. Early detection is difficult since symptoms often do not appear until the disease has spread. Treatment is most successful when cancer is detected early through tests and may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these options depending on cancer type and stage.
Mammography Screening
Mammogram screening involves two main types of mammograms - screening and diagnostic. Screening mammograms are low-dose x-rays used to detect breast cancer in women without symptoms, while diagnostic mammograms are used when abnormalities are discovered. Mammograms can detect cancer at an earlier stage and improve chances of successful treatment, but they also carry risks of false positives and overdiagnosis. The document provides information about mammogram procedures and the services of one diagnostic center.
Etiology_of_cancer
Cancer is caused by abnormal cell growth and can spread through the body. There are several main types of cancer defined by the tissue in which it originates. The main causes of cancer include genetics, tobacco use, and radiation exposure. Common cancer treatments include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, biological therapies, and targeted therapy. Chemotherapy uses cytotoxic drugs to destroy cancer cells but can also damage healthy cells, while targeted therapy drugs attack cancer cells with less damage to normal cells. Radiation therapy uses radiation to treat cancer and can cause side effects like fatigue and loss of appetite. Stem cell transplants are also used to treat some cancers.

Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women. It occurs due to an interaction between environmental and genetic factors. There are two main types - in situ (non-invasive) and invasive (has spread). Diagnosis involves mammograms, ultrasounds, biopsies and other tests. Treatment depends on cancer stage but commonly includes surgery (mastectomy or lumpectomy), chemotherapy, hormone therapy, radiation therapy, and targeted monoclonal antibody therapy. Risk factors include obesity, family history, lifestyle factors. Early detection through screening and awareness is important for improved outcomes.
Prostate cancer
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men after skin cancer. The risk increases after age 50 and more than 75% of cases are diagnosed in men over 65. Symptoms may include difficulty urinating or blood in the urine. Diagnosis involves a physical exam, PSA test, and biopsy of the prostate. Treatment depends on the stage and grade of cancer and may include watchful waiting, surgery to remove the prostate, radiation therapy, and hormone or chemotherapy if it has spread. Nursing care focuses on managing symptoms, preventing complications, and educating patients about treatments and self-care.

According to Dr. Vo Dang Hung, Director of TMMC Healthcare's Oncology Center. Breast Cancer is the most popular cancer among women. Know your risks and get frequent Breast Cancer Screenings to protect yourself.
Key facts and figures
The document summarizes statistics on radiotherapy treatment for cancer patients from various sources. It finds that nearly 2/3 of cancer patients receive radiation therapy, with at least 75% intended to cure the cancer. There are around 2.5 million new cancer cases diagnosed in Europe each year. Treatment practices vary significantly between countries, with the US treating 66% of new patients with radiotherapy compared to 48% in France and less than 20% in Romania. Many countries also have an inadequate number of linear accelerators for cancer treatment compared to estimated needs based on cancer incidence rates. In particular, over 75% of linear accelerators in France and over 90% in Romania are over 5 years old in need of renewal.

Screening
Melanoma is a serious form of skin cancer that is increasing in incidence and mortality rates in Australia. It is the fourth most common cancer in the country and the third most common cancer among men and women aged 15-44. Screening programs for melanoma are important because early detection through regular skin exams can lead to nearly 100% survival if the cancer is caught before it spreads. Such programs should follow WHO criteria including addressing an important health problem, having agreed treatment options, and ensuring screening is an ongoing and continuous process.
Prostate
Prostate cancer develops in the prostate gland and common symptoms include trouble urinating, blood in urine or semen, and swelling in legs. Risk factors include age over 50, family history, diet high in animal fat, and African American ethnicity. It is treated through chemotherapy, cryotherapy, hormone therapy, and screening to detect early. Men can do self-exams starting at age 40 and reducing risk involves frequent ejaculation, not smoking, exercise, and eating tomatoes and foods low in fat.

1. The document discusses ovarian cancer, including its classification, risk factors, staging, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
2. Ovarian cancer is classified into epithelial tumors (90% of cases) and non-epithelial tumors. Epithelial tumors are further divided into serous, mucinous, endometrioid, clear cell, and other subtypes.
3. Treatment involves surgery to optimally debulk the tumor, followed by chemotherapy for most patients. Chemotherapy is also used for palliative purposes in advanced or recurrent disease.
Diagnosis & Staging of Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis, with only 15-20% of patients eligible for potentially curative surgery. Recent data shows survival may be improving, especially for those who receive adjuvant chemoradiation therapy after surgery. Diagnosis involves imaging like CT scans and endoscopic ultrasound to stage the cancer and determine if it can be surgically removed. Endoscopic ultrasound is particularly useful for assessing local tumor spread and blood vessel involvement. A tissue biopsy may also be taken during endoscopic ultrasound to identify the type of cancer.

Oncology is the study of cancer, which is characterized by abnormal cell growth and spread. There are several types of cancer defined by the tissue of origin, with carcinomas being the most common. Cancer symptoms vary depending on the location but may include lumps, pain, weight loss, and spread of cancer cells from the original tumor site via the lymphatic system or bloodstream.
liver cancer.pptx
Liver cancer is a life-threatening illness and one of the fastest-growing cancer types in the United States. There are two kinds of liver cancer: primary and secondary. Primary cancer starts in your liver. Secondary cancer spreads to your liver from another part of your body. This article is an overview of primary liver cancer.
Like many kinds of cancer, healthcare providers can do more to treat liver cancer during the disease’s early stage. Unlike many kinds of cancer, healthcare providers have a good idea of what increases someone’s risk of developing liver cancer. With that in mind, healthcare providers are intent on identifying who may be at increased risk so they can catch and treat primary liver cancer as early as possible.
