Lung Cancer and Treatment at Neumark Surgery

Introduction to Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the lungs. It is one of the most common types of cancer, especially among smokers. There are different types of lung cancer, including small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer.

Understanding the Causes of Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is often linked to smoking, but it can also occur in non-smokers due to factors such as exposure to secondhand smoke, radon gas, air pollution, or asbestos. Genetic predisposition can also play a role in certain cases.

Diagnosis and Screening for Lung Cancer

Early diagnosis of lung cancer is crucial for successful treatment. Screening methods such as chest X-rays, CT scans, and sputum cytology can help detect lung cancer in its early stages. Consultation with a healthcare professional, such as those at Neumark Surgery, is important for proper evaluation and diagnosis.
