There are many types of lung cancer, but most can be categorized into two basic types, "small cell" and " non-small cell. " Small cell lung cancer is generally faster growing than non-small cell, but more likely to respond to chemotherapy. Small cell cancer is divided into "limited stage" (generally cancer confined to the chest) and "extensive stage" (cancer that has spread outside the chest). The traditional staging system, which divides cancer into stages I through IV, is not generally applicable to small cell lung cancer. Causes, incidence, and risk factors

What is Lung Cancer? Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the lung. Normal lung tissue is made up of cells that are programmed by nature to create lungs of a certain shape and function. Sometimes the instructions to a cell go haywire and that cell and its offspring reproduce wildly, without regard for the shape and function of a lung. That wild reproduction can form tumors that clog up the lung and make it stop functioning as it should. Because of the large size of the lungs, cancer may grow for many years, undetected, without causing suspicion. In fact, lung cancer can spread outside the lungs without causing any symptoms. Adding to the confusion, the most common symptom of lung cancer, a presistent cough, can often be mistaken for a cold or bronchitis. How common is lung cancer? Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in the United States, accounting for about 15 percent of all cancer cases, or 170,000 new cases each year. At this time, over half of the lung cancer cases in the United States are in men, but the number found in women is increasing and will soon equal that in men. Today more women die of lung cancer than of breast cancer. The majority of people who get lung cancer have been cigarette smokers, but not all people who smoke get lung cancer. And, some people who have never smoked get lung cancer.

27. Indoor Air - Radon - BEIR VI Report - Executive Summary The National Academy of Sciences comprehensive report (1998) on the health efects of radon in homes. A detailed risk model for the US population. Explains how radon causes lung cancer and estimates that in the U.S. it causes 15,400 21,800 lung cancer deaths each year. http://www.epa.gov/iaq/radon/beirvi1.html

Radon Links BEIR VI - Executive Summary Released to EPA by permission of The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) February 19, 1998 Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) VI Report: "The Health Effects of Exposure to Indoor Radon" INTRODUCTION This National Research Council's report of the sixth Committee on Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiations (BEIR VI) addresses the risk of lung cancer associated with exposure to radon and its radioactive progeny. Radon, a naturally occurring gas formed from the decay of uranium in the earth, has been conclusively shown in epidemiologic studies of underground miners to cause lung cancer. There is supporting evidence from experimental studies of animals that confirm radon as a cause of lung cancer and from molecular and cellular studies that provide an understanding of the mechanisms by which radon causes lung cancer. In addition to being present at high concentrations in many types of underground mines, radon is found in homes and is also present outdoors. Extensive measurements of indoor radon concentrations in homes show that although concentrations vary widely, radon is universally present, raising concerns that radon in homes increases lung-cancer risk for the general population, especially those who spend a majority of their time indoors at home. For the purpose of developing public policy to manage the risk associated with indoor radon, there is a need to characterize the possible risks across the range of exposures received by the population. The higher end of that range of exposures is comparable to those exposures that caused lung cancer in underground miners. The lower end of that range includes exposures received from an average indoor lifetime exposure which is at least one order of magnitude lower.

At Memorial Sloan-Kettering, we are committed to enhancing both the length and the quality of life of lung cancer patients and in preventing the disease when possible. In this section you can find information about our expertise in treating patients with lung cancer, our services, and our research. Overview There are two major types of primary lung cancer: non-small cell and small cell. Each affects different types of cells in the lung and grows and spreads in different ways. Not everyone who gets lung cancer has a history of smoking. If you do smoke, however, you can reduce your risk for lung cancer and the risk of those around you by stopping now. Diagnosis Physicians use several techniques to diagnose lung cancer, including imaging tests and biopsies.
