What is lung cancer?
Cancer is a disease in which certain body cells don't function right, divide very fast, and produce too much tissue that forms a tumor. The lungs, a pair of sponge-like, cone-shaped organs, are part of the body's respiratory system. When we breathe in, the lungs take in oxygen, which our cells need to live and carry out their normal functions. When we breathe out, the lungs get rid of carbon dioxide, which is a waste product of the body's cells. Cancers that begin in the lungs are divided into two major types, non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer, depending on how the cells look under a microscope. Each type of lung cancer grows and spreads in different ways and is treated differently.
Why should I be concerned about lung cancer?
Did you know that lung cancer kills more women every year than breast cancer? Researchers continue to study the causes of lung cancer and to search for ways to prevent it. But, about 90% of all lung cancer deaths among women are from smoking. Even though we know its effects are harmful, 1 out of every 5 women in the U.S. still smokes. We already know that the best way to prevent lung cancer is to quit (or never start) smoking. The sooner a person quits smoking the better. Even if you have been smoking for many years, it's never too late to benefit from quitting.

It provides information about some causes and ways to prevent lung cancer, and it describes the symptoms, detection, diagnosis, and treatment of this disease. Having this important information can make it easier for patients and their families to handle the challenges they face. Cancer research has led to progress against lung cancer and our knowledge is increasing. Researchers continue to look for better ways to prevent, detect, diagnose, and treat lung cancer.

    Overview
    To Learn More About This Topic: Chat with Us Email Us There are two major types of lung cancer: small cell and non-small cell - and different subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer. Each type grows and spreads in different ways, and is treated differently. Non-small cell is the most common form of lung cancer, growing and spreading more slowly than the small cell type, which is also known as oat cell cancer, due to its appearance under a microscope. Small cell lung cancer is more likely to spread to other organs in the body. According to the National Cancer Institute, cancer of the lung and bronchus (hereafter, lung cancer) is the second most common cancer among both men and women, second only to colorectal cancer. Cigarette smoking accounts for nearly ninety percent of all lung cancers, and it is therefore the single most preventable cancer in existence. Quitting smoking is beneficial at all ages, and the earlier in life one quits, the greater the benefits. One study estimated that men who quit smoking by age 50 reduced their risk of lung cancer by almost two-thirds, compared to men who continued to smoke at age 75. If you have been diagnosed with lung cancer, you should know that Cancer Treatment Centers of America provides you with the options and tools you need to focus on healing. Treatment for lung cancer depends on the stage of the disease, the location and size of the tumor, your age and general health, as well as other factors your doctor will discuss with you.

UI study finds residential radon exposure poses a significant lung cancer risk
IOWA CITY, Iowa Long-term exposure to radon in the home is associated with lung cancer risk and presents a significant environmental health hazard, according to a study led by researchers at the University of Iowa College of Public Health. The Iowa Radon Lung Cancer Study, funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, included investigators from the UI, St. John's University in Collegeville, Minn. and the University of Kansas. The results are published in the June 1 issue of the American Journal of Epidemiology. From 1993 to 1997, the researchers studied 1,027 Iowa women 413 who were newly diagnosed with lung cancer and 614 "controls" ages 40 to 84 who had lived in their homes for the past 20 years or more. The women studied in both groups included smokers as well as nonsmokers. Women were studied because they typically have less occupational exposures to substances that may cause lung cancer, and historically have spent more time in the home. The researchers found that close to 60 percent of the basement radon concentrations for both the lung cancer cases (study participants with lung cancer) and the control group (participants without lung cancer) exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency action level for radon of 4 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L). The researchers found that 33 percent of living areas for the lung cancer cases, and 28 percent of the living areas for the control group, exceeded the EPA's action level of 4 pCi/L.
