Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer related death in Ireland. The majority of lung cancers are inoperable at the time of diagnosis and consequently the overall 5 year survival ...

If you have liver metastases, it is possible you won't have any symptoms at all. Metastasis is often only discovered when a test, such as a CT scan or PET scan, is done to determine the stage of your ...

The doctor inserts a needle into the lung through the skin, using either an imaging scan, such as a CT scan, for guidance. The procedure can take up to 1 hour. An individual may need to fast for 8 ...

The iron lung, conceptualized in the late 1920s, was most notably the first line of defense against polio during the epidemics that occurred between 1948 to 1955. The device saved the lives of ...
