Blood Cancer is also known as haematological cancer includes leukaemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Blood cancer originates in the blood-forming tissue, such as the bone marrow, or in the cells of the immune system like lymph nodes. Abnormal blood cells affect the normal production or regular function of normal blood cells, including fighting against diseases or limiting blood loss.
Lung cancer is a cancer that occurs in the lungs. The lungs are two spongy organs in the chest that take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide when you exhale. When the cells in the lungs start growing abnormally, they form a mass or a tumor that can interfere with the normal functioning of the lungs.

Oncologists at Medanta who are spearheading early breast cancer screenings say they are not surprised at the lack of curiosity and enthusiasm.
