Cancer!• Uncontrolled cell growth.• Often results in a tumor which is a large mass of

cells. • Tumors cause the tissue it is located in to stop

functioning correctly. They can also impair the function of surrounding tissues.

• Cancer cells can be ‘benign’ or ‘metastatic”• Benign cancers are isolated to one area of the

body and curable.• Metastatic cancers spread throughout the body

and are difficult to cure.
