About the Metastasis of Cancer Session
Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells to new parts of the body usually through the lymphatic system or the bloodstream. A metastatic cancer, also known as a metastatic tumor, has migrated beyond its original site of origin, or where it began to other parts of the body. Secondary tumors are tumors that develop from cells that have disseminated. The cancer may have migrated to nearby areas, which is known as Regional Metastasis, or to distant sections of the body, which is known as distant metastasis. Cancer's hallmark is metastasis, which is responsible for the majority of cancer-related deaths. Despite this, it is still poorly understood. Some of the molecular underpinnings of this dissemination process have been uncovered due to the ongoing evolution of cancer biology research and the emergence of new paradigms in the study of metastasis.
