The lung is a complex organ comprising several types of cells, such as mucus-secreting cells and cells lining the airways. Mutations due to several reasons, such as exposure to radiation, result in uncontrolled growth and division of cancer cells, leading to a tumor.
Lung cancer begins in the lungs and may spread to lymph nodes or other organs in the body, such as the brain. Cancer from other organs also may spread to the lungs. When cancer cells spread from one organ to another, they are called metastases.
