Lung Cancer Treatment

Abstract

            Cancer is, always has been, and always will be a huge problem in the world that we all live in. All types of cancer are potentially deadly under the right set of circumstances. However, one of the most formidable forms of this horrendous disease comes in the form of lung cancer. Lung cancer is the third most common type of cancer in America led only by skin and breast cancer, respectively. Over two hundred thousand American people were diagnosed with a new case of lung cancer in the year 2022 alone. As long as we have known about cancer, we have tried to find the causes and the various kinds that exist. However, the one thing we have done with more purpose is try to find the treatments or cures to these diseases. Diagnostic predictions have changed from the diagnosis meaning almost certain death to the individual having hope that they can survive with the right medical care. Lung cancer has a long history of how it was clinically treated. Over time we have become more effective in our treatments and hope to carry this upward trend into the future.
