k Lung cancer. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging MRI scan of a coronal frontal section through a patients chest, showing a malignant tumour red, upper right in the left lung. Cancer cells divide rapidly and chaotically. They may clump to form tumours as seen here, which invade and destroy surrounding tissues. Lung cancer causes a cough, chest pain, shortness of breath and weight loss. If the cancer has not spread metastasised to other tissues then the tumour may be removed surgically. Other treatments include chemotherapy anticancer drugs and radiotherapy. Editorial Stock Photo - Afloimages
