Cancer refers to a group of illnesses that result from cells in the body growing abnormally. These cells divide and produce new cells in an uncontrolled way that can spread through out the body and cause damage to essential organs.

The world’s population is expected to be 7.5 billion by 2020 and approximations predict that about 15.0 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed; with deaths of about 12.0 million cancer patients. In fact the most of cancer is 100% curable if there is an early detection or even the detection at late stage is also curable if proper therapy is given.

MODERN MEDICAL FACILITIES

In order to proceed for the treatment one should be aware with the centres/hospitals at their nearest place as far as practicable, where the best possible treatment is available. Since cancer treatment is time taking and runs very long, therefore, consideration of some other points are necessary, such as type of therapy, cost involved, accommodation and other related facilities.

Accurate Results

Today, a growing number of tests can be performed to identify the presence of abnormal cells or an abnormal structure. These tests can simply confirm or eliminate a primary cancer (diagnose), or they can help determine the spread of the malignancy (stage). Essentially these investigations fall into three main groups: Radiology, Pathology and Endoscopy.

RADIOLOGY

X-rays or gamma rays
Computed Tomography (CT)
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
Ultrasound
Nuclear Medicine Imaging

PATHOLOGY

Biochemistry.
Monoclonal antibodies.
Tumour markers.
Biopsy.
Cytology.
