What Is Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer starts in the lungs and is commonly associated with smoking, though it can also affect non-smokers. It is one of the most prevalent and aggressive forms of cancer. The two main types are:
- Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
- Small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
Each type requires a distinct treatment approach, making accurate diagnosis essential.
Lung Cancer Symptoms
Early detection can lead to better outcomes. Common signs include:
- Persistent cough
- Chest pain
- Shortness of breath
- Coughing up blood
- Unexplained weight loss
- Frequent respiratory infections
If you have any of these symptoms—especially with a history of smoking, contact us promptly for evaluation.
How We Diagnose Lung Cancer
We use a full range of diagnostic tools, including:
- Chest X-rays and CT scans
- Bronchoscopy and Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS)
