Detection it the first step in treating cancer. Without proper detection, the cancer is able to spread and attack the body. If left too long, that cancer could become untreatable.

When doctors perform checkups and fail to find cancer, they are putting their patients at risk. When there is evidence of cancer that the doctor misses, he or she is negligent in treating the patient.
