This classification depends upon the microscopic appearance of the tumor cells themselves, specifically the size of the cells. These two types of cancers grow and spread in different ways and may have different treatment options. SCLC comprises about 20% of lung cancers which are the most aggressive and rapidly growing of all lung cancers. SCLC is related to cigarette smoking, with only 1% of these tumors occurring in non-smokers. SCLC metastasis rapidly spreads to many sites within the body and are most often discovered after they have spread extensively. Referring to a specific cell appearance often seen when examining samples of SCLC under the microscope, these cancers are sometimes called oat cell carcinomas. NSCLC is the most common lung cancers, accounting for about 80% of all lung cancers. NSCLC can b...

Proton Cancer Treatment Centre These are the Advanced Treatment For Prostate Cancer: 1. Active Surveillance: If  prostate cancer  is detected at an early, passive state then a wait and watch approach is often the preferred option. The treatment of cancer at this stage could lead to larger complications than the tumor itself. 2. Surgical Treatment: Surgical treatment is used to counter prostate cancer and remove the tumor either through conventional or  robotic surgery . 3. Radical Prostatectomy: This is the surgical removal of the entire prostate and the seminal vesicles. While the surgery eliminates the tumor, it usually has serious effects on the patient’s sexual health. 4. Radiation Therapy: Photon  Radiation therapy  to treat prostate cancer that is contained within the prostate. Radiation therapists may perform: Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) –  This combines precise 3-D imaging from CT scanning with highly targeted rad...
