Abstract
Cancer is a family of diseases caused by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in a part of the body. Cancer is caused by both external factors (tobacco, chemicals, radiation, and infectious organisms) and internal factors (inherited mutations, hormones, immune conditions, and mutations that occur from metabolism). Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide. Cancer is the most costly illness and people with cancer often have high out-of-pocket health care costs. It is also often physically and emotionally difficult for those living with it and for their care providers. People who say they have had cancer are more likely to report poor health and symptoms of depression. The earlier cancer is diagnosed and treated, the better the chance of its being cured. Some types of cancer such as the skin, breast, mouth, testicles, prostate, and rectum may be detected by routine self-exam or other screening measures before the symptoms become serious. This paper analyzes the different cancer detection techniques to diagnose cancer in early stages.
