IAVC2020

It was really a wonderful virtual conference program and we had some difficulties which we believe with the understanding of our speakers and special guest that it will be the best on our next conference. There were so many things that we could not grasp within the short frame of time and as such we think it necessary to upload some of the materials here and on our site for proper personal study.

Body organs liable to developing cancer and their respective markers to ease identification of cancer type by lab scientists

Cancer is posing a global threat to health increasing mortality rate and lowering per  capita income. Though less threat is posed by benign cancer (as it can surgically be incised), metastatic cancers can spread from organ to organ in the body. Clinical examination for tumours for some cancers eg breast cancer is easy by palpitating the breast. Other cancers such as prostate cancer can only be diagnose by screening for Prostate Specific Antigen, PSA (in the case of prostate cancer). Early detection can lead to better treatment option, other than X-rays. Some food or fruits have proven effective in the treatment of cancer such as Guanabana (soursop) and bitter kola. The above image presents different body systems with markers for the organ-system.
