Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is cancer?
The body is made up of many types of cells. Normally, cells grow,
divide, and produce more cells as needed to keep the body healthy.
Sometimes, the process goes wrong. Cells become abnormal and form
more cells in an uncontrolled way. These extra cells form a mass of
tissue, called a growth or tumor. Tumors can be benign, which means
not cancerous, or malignant, which means cancerous.
