Introduction To Cancer

Cancer diagnosis

• It is essential to diagnose cancer early and with
  certainty. Different modalities are used for
  cancer diagnosis. Some of them are imaging, some
  requires tissue or cells from the tumor specimen,
  and some requires other ancillary tests.

Cancer Treatment

• There are many types of cancer treatment. The
  types of treatment that you have will depend on
  the type of cancer you have and how advanced it
  is. Some people with cancer will have only one
  treatment. But most people have a combination of
  treatments, such as surgery with chemotherapy and/
  or radiation therapy. You may also have 
  immunotherapy,  targeted therapy, or hormone
  therapy.

Second Opinion on Cancer Diagnosis

• Advancements in cancer care are happening at an
  unprecedented rate, and it is not any different
  in the case of the cancer diagnosis. Cancer is a
  complex disease and depending solely on the
  primary diagnosis may not be a great idea. Going
  for a second opinion on the available diagnosis
  before proceeding with the treatment could make a
  huge difference.
• A second opinion is a medical process wherein the
  primary physicians cancer diagnosis and
  treatment plans are reviewed by another
  specialist or a group of specialists.

Cancer screening

• Cancer screening aims to detect cancer before
  symptoms appear. This may involve blood
  tests, urine tests, DNA tests, other tests,
  or medical imaging. The benefits of screening in
  terms of cancer prevention, early detection and
  subsequent treatment must be weighed against any
  harms.

Cancer prevention

• Cancer prevention is action taken to lower the
  risk of getting cancer. This can include
  maintaining a healthy lifestyle, avoiding
  exposure to known cancer-causing substances, and
  taking medicines or vaccines that can prevent
  cancer from developing.

7
Cancer Genetic Screening

• Cancer Genetic Screening helps estimate your
  chance of developing cancer in your lifetime. It
  does this by searching for specific changes in
  your genes, chromosomes, or proteins. These
  changes are called mutations.
• Genetic tests are available for some types of
  cancer. These include
• Breast cancer
• Ovarian cancer
• Colon cancer
• Thyroid cancer
• Prostate cancer
• Pancreatic cancer
• Melanoma 
• Sarcoma
• Kidney cancer
• Stomach cancer
