When these vessels are damaged, narrowed, or weakened, the impact can be serious and sometimes sudden.

World Lung Cancer Day 2025: United for Awareness, Prevention and Early Detection

Lung cancer is one of the most widespread and deadliest types of cancer, responsible for nearly one in five cancer-related deaths worldwide.
