Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with lung cancer alone ranked the sixth leading cause of death in 2021. Cancer, also known as malignant tumors and neoplasms, is the result of interactions between personal genetic factors and external agents causing abnormal transformations of cells into tumors over time. As the global population has increased in age, the incidence of new cancer cases has also risen, contributing to a higher number of deaths each year. In 2022, nearly 10 million deaths were caused by cancer worldwide- a number which is expected to reach over 15 million by 2040.
