About

Cancer stages are generally divided from Stage 0 to Stage 4. Stage 0 (Carcinoma in situ): An early state where cancer cells remain only within the epithelial cells. Stage 1: The cancer is small and localized to a part of the original organ. Stage 2: The cancer has grown larger than Stage 1 or spread slightly more into surrounding tissue. Stage 3: The cancer has spread beyond the primary site to nearby lymph nodes. Stage 4 (Terminal/Metastatic): The cancer has spread through the blood or lymphatic system to distant organs such as the brain, liver, or lungs.
