Cancer

Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth of tissue cells in the body and the invasion by these cells into nearby tissue and migration to distant sites. Cells are the building blocks of living things.
Cancer grows out of normal cells in the body. Normal cells multiply when the body needs them, and die when the body doesn't need them. Cancer appears to occur when the growth of cells in the body is out of control and cells divide too quickly. It can also occur when cells forget how to die.
There are many different kinds of cancers. Cancer can develop in almost any organ or tissue, such as the lung, colon, breast, skin, bones, or nerve tissue.

When cells of the lung start growing rapidly in an uncontrolled manner, the condition is called lung cancer. Cancer can affect any part of the lung and it's the leading cause of cancer deaths in both women and men in the United States, Canada, and China.
Two main types of lung cancer exist: small-cell lung cancer (SCLC, also called oat cell cancer) and non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Small-cell lung cancer accounts for approximately 20%-25% of all cases of lung cancer.
