Cancer biology is the study of how the intracellular network of typical cells is disrupted during carcinogenesis in order to build successful predictive models that can help scientists and clinicians in the validation of new therapies and drugs. Cancer research is to identify causes and develop strategies for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure.
The factors that cause the disease in order to establish disease-prevention strategies. The epidemiologic assessment provides a clinician with a comprehensive assessment of cancer risk, outlines the definition of screening modalities for high-risk populations and delineates the concept of cancer surveillance determines the efficacy of any preventive intervention.
Unlike diagnostic efforts prompted by symptoms and medical signs, cancer screening involves efforts to detect cancer after it has formed, but before any noticeable symptoms appear. This may involve physical examination, blood or urine tests or medical imaging.
A pathology report is a medical document that gives information about a diagnosis, such as cancer. Pathologists are among the most important members of a patient’s cancer care team. They work to diagnose and determine the stage of cancer, setting the course for what comes next in the treatment journey. Cancer is a Genetic disease mainly caused due to alterations in different kinds of Genes. Cancers develop due to DNA Mutations and Epigenetics alterations and accumulate as a solid mass called a tumor.
Pulmonology deals with diseases involving the respiratory tract. It is also known as respiratory, respiratory medicine, or chest medicine in some countries and areas. Radiology is the medical discipline that uses medical imaging to diagnose and treat diseases within the bodies of animals and humans. Imaging tests can be used to look for cancer, find out how far it has spread, and help see if cancer treatment is working.
Non-small cell lung cancer is a group of lung cancers that behave similarly, such as squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Symptoms are a cough that won't go away, shortness of breath, weight loss or coughing up blood. Treatments include surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.
The aim of palliative treatment is to relieve symptoms and improve your quality of life. It can be used at any stage of an illness if there are troubling symptoms, such as pain or sickness. In advanced cancer, palliative treatment might help someone to live longer and more comfortably, even if they cannot be cured.
Oncology nursing care can be defined as meeting the various needs of oncology patients during the time of their disease including appropriate screenings and other preventive practices, symptom management, care to retain as much normal functioning as possible, and supportive measures upon the end of life.
Patient advocacy is an area of specialization in health care concerned with advocacy for patients, survivors, and caregivers. The patient advocate may be an individual or an organization, often, though not always, concerned with one specific group of disorders.
The rapidly expanding COVID-19 pandemic impacted all areas of daily life, including medical care. In particular, delivering care for patients with cancer or suspected cancer during this crisis has been challenging given the competing risks of death from untreated cancer versus serious complications from SARS-CoV-2, and the likely higher lethality of COVID-19 in immunocompromised hosts.
Cells that are present in tumors and have the capabilities of self-renewing and the ability to give rise to many cells are known as cancer stem cells. The cancer stem cell model is also known as the hierarchical model process. Cellular therapies are a part of complementary treatment regimens.
Oncology continues to be a major focus for all healthcare stakeholders, attracting intense investments in drug development for new therapies and diagnostics that keep fueling innovation while increasing concerns for the ever-rising cost of cancer care. The call for value-based strategies in oncology has become mainstream, with providers, payers, drug manufacturers, and ultimately patients searching for ways to improve access to new therapies and best practices, implementing clinical pathways, new reimbursement metrics, and patient support services.
