Cancer is one of the most virulent diseases in the modern world that still remains a challenge, yet to be fully understood and conquered. Since exact cause of this disease still remains an enigma, preventive measures remain non-existent. It has been reported by several medical scientists that modern day lifestyles, pollution and exposure to hazardous environment may result in mutation of healthy living cells causing cancer. Genetic disorder is also known to cause cancer. Cancer can be found in different parts of the body and is named after the region of their origin like brain cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer to name a few. Late detection fallouts in higher grade cancer detected with very poor prognosis, consequences into high mortality within few months. Early detection is the only hope for better prognosis and treatment.

Abstract


Cancer is one of the most virulent diseases in the modern world that still remains a challenge, yet to be fully understood and conquered. Since exact cause of this disease still remains an enigma, preventive measures remain non-existent. It has been reported by several medical scientists that modern day lifestyles, pollution and exposure to hazardous environment may result in mutation of healthy living cells causing cancer. Genetic disorder is also known to cause cancer. Cancer can be found in different parts of the body and is named after the region of their origin like brain cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer to name a few. Late detection fallouts in higher grade cancer detected with very poor prognosis, consequences into high mortality within few months. Early detection is the only hope for better prognosis and treatment.
