Lung cancer is one of the most common and serious types of cancer, originating in the lungs’ tissues. It is broadly classified into two types: non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The leading cause of lung cancer is long-term smoking, but it can also occur in non-smokers due to factors like air pollution, genetic predisposition, or exposure to harmful substances like asbestos or radon gas.

Symptoms may include a persistent cough, chest pain, coughing up blood, shortness of breath, unexplained weight loss, and fatigue. These signs often appear in later stages, making early detection critical for successful treatment.

At our hospital, we offer a comprehensive approach to lung cancer care, starting with accurate diagnosis using advanced tools like chest X-rays, CT scans, PET scans, bronchoscopy, and biopsy. Our multidisciplinary team includes pulmonologists, oncologists, radiologists, and thoracic surgeons who collaborate to develop a personalized treatment plan for each patient.

Treatment depends on the type, stage, and overall health of the patient. Options include:

• Surgery to remove the tumor if detected early.

• Chemotherapy to destroy cancer cells.

• Radiation therapy to target and kill cancer in specific areas.

• Targeted therapy for cancers with specific genetic mutations.

• Immunotherapy to help the body’s immune system fight cancer.

Supportive care, such as pain management, nutrition counseling, and psychological support, is also provided throughout the treatment process.

Our goal is to deliver high-quality, compassionate care focused on both survival and quality of life. With early detection, advanced technology, and expert care, we are dedicated to offering the best possible outcomes for patients battling lung cancer
