Understanding Cancer & Tumors
Difference Between Benign and Malignant Tumors

Malignant Tumors (Cancer)
- Cancerous growths
- Can invade nearby tissues
- May spread to other parts of the body (metastasis)
How Cancer Spreads
Cancer spreads when abnormal cells invade nearby tissues or travel through blood and lymphatic channels to other organs. Early detection and timely treatment help prevent cancer progression.
Chemotherapy & Cancer Treatment
Chemotherapy may be used to:
- Shrink tumors
- Prevent cancer spread
