Breast Cancer : Breast cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the breast tissue. It is the most common cancer among women worldwide, and can affect both men and women, although much less commonly in men. Symptoms can include a lump in the breast, changes in breast size or shape, nipple discharge, and pain in the breast. Early detection and treatment are crucial for successful outcomes.
Sentinel Node Biopsy : A sentinel node biopsy is a surgical procedure used to stage breast cancer and determine if the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes. It involves removing the sentinel lymph node, which is the first lymph node to receive drainage from the tumor. This information helps doctors decide on the best course of treatment.
Gallbladder Cancer : Gallbladder cancer is a relatively rare cancer that occurs in the gallbladder, a small organ located under the liver. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, jaundice, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss. Early detection is challenging as symptoms often develop only in later stages.
Liver Cancer : Liver cancer is a cancer that originates in the liver, the largest organ in the body. It can be caused by various factors, including hepatitis B and C infections, cirrhosis, and excessive alcohol consumption. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, jaundice, fatigue, weight loss, and swelling in the abdomen.
Lung Cancer : Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, affecting both smokers and non-smokers. It can develop in different parts of the lungs and can cause symptoms such as coughing, chest pain, shortness of breath, and coughing up blood. Early detection and diagnosis are crucial for successful treatment.
