How is lung cancer treated?
The type of treatment you receive for lung cancer depends on several factors, such as the size and position of the cancer.
According to the NHS, the most common treatment options include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
“Depending on the type of cancer and the stage, you may receive a combination of these treatments,” explains the health body.
