Lung cancer

Lung cancer

Lung cancer develops when abnormal cells in the lungs grow uncontrollably, often caused by smoking, exposure to radon or other environmental factors. Symptoms may include persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath and coughing up blood.

At UMC Hospitals, our specialized oncology team offers advanced diagnostics, personalized treatment plans, including surgery, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, along with supportive care services, to effectively manage lung cancer and improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
