Skip navigation Lung Cancer Printer-friendly version PDF file, 92 Kb] What is lung cancer? Why should I be concerned about lung cancer? Where can I find out more about lung cancer? Smoking What is lung cancer? Cancer is a disease in which certain body cells don't function right, divide very fast, and produce too much tissue that forms a tumor. The lungs, a pair of sponge-like, cone-shaped organs, are part of the body's respiratory system. When we breathe in, the lungs take in oxygen, which our cells need to live and carry out their normal functions. When we breathe out, the lungs get rid of carbon dioxide, which is a waste product of the body's cells. Cancers that begin in the lungs are divided into two major types, non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer, depending on how the cells look under a microscope. Each type of lung cancer grows and spreads in different ways and is treated differently. Why should I be concerned about lung cancer? Did you know that lung cancer kills more women every year than breast cancer? Researchers continue to study the causes of lung cancer and to search for ways to prevent it. But, about 90% of all lung cancer deaths among women are from smoking. Even though we know its effects are harmful, 1 out of every 5 women in the U.S. still smokes. We already know that the best way to prevent lung cancer is to quit (or never start) smoking. The sooner a person quits smoking the better. Even if you have been smoking for many years, it's never too late to benefit from quitting.

THE IOWA RADON LUNG CANCER STUDY The latest and most substantial study ever on the link between radon and lung cancer (May, 2000) proves that residential radon causes cancer even at the low levels in homes. At the EPA's 4 pCi/L action limit, the lung cancer risk to women increases by 50%. http://www.cheec.uiowa.edu/misc/radon.html

The study assessed the risk posed by residential radon exposure. The 5-year study was performed in Iowa and the participants were women throughout Iowa who lived in their current home for at least 20 years. Over a thousand Iowa women took part in the study. Four hundred and thirteen of the participants were women who had developed lung cancer, the remaining 614 participants were controls who did not have lung cancer. The study was limited to women, because they historically tend to spend more time at home and they have less occupational exposure to other lung carcinogens. The epidemiologic study was performed in Iowa for several reasons. Iowa has the highest average

Learn more California Lung Cancer Rates Drop Significantly Article date: In the years following California voters? passage of a major tobacco-control package, lung cancer rates in the state have dropped about five times more than the decline seen in other areas of the country, according to a report released today by scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta (MMWR 2000; Vol. 49, No. 47) Public health experts say California?s success in reducing the staggering public health costs of tobacco use can point the way toward achieving similar results elsewhere. "This shows tobacco control efforts can and do pay off," says Jane Henley, MSPH, an epidemiologist with the American Cancer Society?s (ACS) department of epidemiology and surveillance research in Atlanta. In 1988, California voters passed Proposition 99, a comprehensive effort to reduce damage to public health and lower other costs related to tobacco-caused disease. They elected to raise taxes on tobacco and spend a portion of the income gained on a multi-faceted program designed to reduce consumption of tobacco in the state.

There are many types of lung cancer, but most can be categorized into two basic types, "small cell" and " non-small cell. " Small cell lung cancer is generally faster growing than non-small cell, but more likely to respond to chemotherapy. Small cell cancer is divided into limited stage (generally cancer confined to the chest) and extensive stage (cancer that has spread outside the chest). The traditional staging system, which divides cancer into stages I - IV, is not generally applicable to small cell lung cancer. Causes, incidence, and risk factors
