Dr. Coral Olazagasti Explains the Development and Spread of Lung Cancer – Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center

Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center posted the following on LinkedIn:

“Join Thoracic Medical Oncologist Dr. Coral Olazagasti as she discusses how Lung Cancer develops. Cancers in the chest area arise when lung cells grow uncontrollably. When these cells spread to other organs, it’s known as metastasis. Lung cancer is concerning because it’s often detected in later stages, making treatment more challenging.
