CANCER TYPES
LUNG CANCER
Lung cancer forms in the tissue of the lung – usually in the cells that line the airways. It can invade nearby tissues and form tumors. Lung cancer can start anywhere in the lungs and affect any part of the respiratory system. The cancer can spread, or metastasize, to the lymph nodes and other parts of the body. The two main types of lung cancer are small-cell and non-small-cell.
Research shows that low-dose CT scanning is the most successful at detecting lung cancer at an early stage, when it's most treatable. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths.
