Cancer denotes a class of diseases characterized by excessive and abnormal growth of cells, their invasion into surrounding tissues, and their spread to other parts of the body. Cancers are responsible for nearly 13% of all deaths across the world. The most common types of cancer are lung cancer, breast cancer, skin cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer. Diagnosis of cancer is usually made by examination of the affected tissue by a pathologist. Treatment includes chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery or more often a combination of these modalities

Ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer occurs most often from the outer lining of the ovary called Epithelialium. There are only 20% of the ovarian cancers that arise from the stroma and egg cells. The ovarian cancers are known to occur in women over the age of 50. However there are some varieties that occur in younger women also.
Self examination of testis
Testicular cancer is most common in men ages 20 to 35 but it can occur at any age. A simple testicular self-examination can improve the chances of finding a tumor early. Beginning at age 15, it is a good idea to do a monthly testicular self-exam. Regular testicular self-examinations are an important way to identify changes that can be a sign of cancer. Early diagnosis is important because testicular cancer is highly treatable when found early. Lumps or other changes found during a testicular self-exam aren't always a sign of cancer, but still need to be checked by a doctor.
Colposcopy
It provides the magnification of 10-20 times. It helps to detect abnormal areas so that selective biopsy can be obtained under magnification. Colposcopy is done in those with positive cervical lesions.

CHICAGO, March 18 â?? Instead of killing off cancer cells with toxic drugs, scientists have discovered a molecular pathway that forces them to grow old and die, they said yesterday. Cancer cells spread and grow because they can divide indefinitely. But a study in mice showed that blocking a cancer-causing gene called Skp2 forced cancer cells to go through an aging process known as senescence â?? the ...
