Lung cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the lungs. It occurs when cells in the body begin to grow out of control in the lung tissues. Treatment can vary depending on the type and stage of the cancer and includes options such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapies. Oncothermia may be a complementary option to help fight the cancer.
