Lung Cancer

Cancer is a one frightful disease that can be happen in a human. Until now the real etiology of cancer is still unknown. The risk factors have been known. Cancer can be familial, which means if you have a mother having a breast cancer then if you are a women, you can get it too. Your risk is higher than people who don't have family with breast cancer.

One of the common cancer is lung cancer. Why I said it is common? It is becauce we can see a lot of people smoking in the street, bus, office, and frankly we can say that there are a lot of people who smoked. Smoking is one of lung cancer main risk factor. The scientist and the medical practitioner called cigarette is a carsinogenic agent. Wait, don't think only people who smoked will get the cancer. People who get the smoke from the cigarette also have a problem. The most dangerous is the side stream of cigarette smoke when the cigarette is not used.

Lung cancer diagnosis can be found by the cancer cells. It called doing biopsy. After it has been diagnosed, then the lung cancer therapy is by doing a surgery remove the cancer part if it is still in the early stradium. If the cancer has spreaded, then we also must do the chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
