Understanding Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is a serious health concern affecting millions of individuals worldwide. It develops when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the lungs, forming a mass or tumor. There are two main types of lung cancer: non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Each type has different characteristics and treatment approaches.
Early Detection Saves Lives
Early detection of lung cancer significantly improves the chances of successful treatment. That is why routine screenings, especially for individuals with a history of smoking or exposure to harmful substances, are crucial. Our medical center at Neumark Surgery offers state-of-the-art screening techniques to detect lung cancer in its early stages.
Diagnosis and Staging
Upon suspicion of lung cancer, accurate diagnosis and staging are essential. Our experienced team of doctors utilizes advanced imaging technologies and biopsy procedures to confirm the presence of cancer, determine its specific type, and assess its stage. This information is critical for developing a personalized treatment plan.
