Cancer: is a disease in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and destroy body tissue. Cancerous tumors are malignant, which means they can spread into, or invade, nearby tissues.
Diseases like cancer have complex tissue morphology requiring microscopic examination. Typically this involves 2D examination through a microscope by a pathologist, a slow and manual pr...
