Article: Some types of cancer (prostate, breast, lymphoma for examples) are best diagnosed with a minor biopsy procedure (taking a tissue sample with a long needle) to see if cancer cells are present. A biopsy is considered a diagnostic surgery — to see if the cancer cells can be detected.  Biopsies can not only detect if cancer cells are present in some area of the body, but they can also give your doctor an idea of cancer type and general degree of aggressiveness. A biopsy procedure is fairly low risk for anything serious such as an infection, but bruising, tenderness (for a few days or more) and minor bleeding are common side effects. Some types of cancer, such as squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, can be entirely removed and cured with surgery — so it's referred to as curative surgery. However, it's important to realize that most types of cancer cannot be entirely removed via surgery because cancer cells often spread throughout the body, which is called metastasis.  The best time to remove a cancerous tumor is in it's early stages before it spreads to other sites via the blood. Preventive (prophylactic) surgery is done to remove tissue (such as the breast) that’s likely to become cancerous, despite not showing any signs of cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill or damage cancer cells in specific areas of the body by altering the genes (DNA) in the cells. It's one of the most common treatments for cancer (by itself or in combination with other therapies). Radiation can be very effective for lymphomas, lung cancer and various skin cancers, among others.  Radiation therapy doesn’t always kill cancer cells right away. Instead, it might take many days or weeks of treatment for the cancer cells to start dying. Cancer cells may continue dying for months after the radiation treatments end. Radiation can also burn healthy tissue and there's even a small risk of triggering cancer cells due to its ability to alter DNA, so talk to your doctor about the pros and cons of the therapy. Chemotherapy involves using medicines or drugs to kill cancer cells. Although surgery and radiation therapy kills or damages cancer cells in relatively specific areas, chemotherapy works throughout the entire body because the chemicals travel within the bloodstream. Chemotherapy can kill cancer cells that have metastasized far away from the primary (original) tumor.  Chemotherapy often shrinks tumors and/or stops cancer cells from dividing, but doesn't entirely get rid of cancer — it's controlled and managed as a chronic disease instead. Chemotherapy is often recommended for lung, ovarian, pancreatic and blood cancers. The problem with chemo is that it can also kill healthy cells in the body, which can lead to negative side effects. As scientists have learned more about the triggers for growth and spread of the various types of cancer cells, they've developed drugs that target the differences. As such, this drug-based treatment is typically called targeted cancer therapy. In essence, it's a more specific type of chemotherapy that generally leads to fewer and more mild side effects.  Targeted drugs can be used as the main therapy for some cancers, but typically they’re given along with standard chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiation therapy. Much like standard chemotherapy, targeted therapy is given intravenously (directly into the veins) or as pills. However, targeted therapy tends to be much more expensive than regular chemo. A relatively newer type of cancer treatment that can increase your chances of survival is called immunotherapy, which uses certain parts of your immune system to combat cancer cells. This can be done by either boosting your own immunity to attack the cancerous cells or by giving your body immune system components, such as special proteins.  Some types of immunotherapy are also called biologic therapy, bio-therapy or cancer vaccines. Monoclonal antibodies are immune system proteins that attack specific parts of cancer cells. Immunotherapy works better for certain types of cancer at certain stages, so ask your doctor if it's a good option for your situation. Stem cell transplants can also be used to treat cancer and increase your survival rate. Stem cells are essentially immature (undifferentiated) blood cells found in your bone marrow and blood. However, these adaptable cells can mature into all types of different blood cells and help to treat or even cure various types of cancer. Stem cell transplants are also used to replace bone marrow and blood that's been destroyed by cancer, chemo and/or radiation therapy.   Stem cell transplants are most effective for cancers affecting your blood or immune system, such as leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.  Stem cells can be donated from a donor (from their bone marrow) or gotten from fetal tissues. The cost of a stem cell transplant is more than any other type of cancer treatment.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Talk to your doctor about a tissue biopsy. Discuss curative and preventative surgeries with your doctor. Ask your doctor about radiation therapy. Consult your doctor about chemotherapy. Consider targeted cancer therapy instead. Learn about cancer immunotherapy as a treatment. Investigate stem cell transplants for cancer.
Article: Sleeves are a great way to keep your iPad protected while traveling or commuting without adding too much extra weight. However, sleeves will only keep your iPad protected when not in use. Look for a thicker and/or tougher case that protects the back cover, corners and sides of your iPad. A thicker case may increase the weight of your iPad. You can find such cases that also have a cover that protects the screen while its not in use. Some accessories that can come with a case include a pen holder, a keyboard, or something that allows you to prop up your iPad while using it. Because your iPad is an Apple product, it may be easiest to check Apple’s website at https://www.apple.com/shop/ipad/ipad-accessories or go to an Apple store because they will have products made to fit your device. If you want a wider range of options from other brands, you can check other online retailers or tech stores.  If you are shopping for a case online, make sure to check customer reviews to ensure it meets your needs. Going to a physical store rather than shopping online gives you the opportunity to bring your iPad with you and ask an employee to help you choose your case. Make sure it is suitable for your iPad model and screen size. If the model and/or screen size is not mentioned, look for the dimensions that can fit in the case. Make sure you are aware of the store’s return policies so that you can return the case if it does not fit your iPad or your needs.
