What is Cancer?


An animated introduction to cancer biology
We’ve been asked countless time “What is Cancer?”

You would think that doctors and oncologist would have covered this in great detail with their patients but cancer is a very complex and confusing subject and all-too-often it is generalized.

“Cancer is a tumor.”  “Cancer is a disease.”

Cancer is much more than a tumor or a disease.  This excellent video walks you through the basics and helps you to understand what cancer is, how cancer cells interact with the human body, and how it can spread throughout the body.  What better way to explain a complex subject than with animation and easy to understand terms and descriptions.
