Types of Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is divided into non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).  The non-small-cell composes the majority of the lung cancers and is subdivided into several types based on the pathology and they are treated in the same fashion.  Treatment depends on the stage of the cancer.
