What are the Types of Cancer Cells Based on Histology?
Cancers can be classified based on the type of cell from which they originate:
Carcinomas: Arising from epithelial cells, these are the most common type of cancer. Sarcomas: Originating from connective tissues like bone, muscle, and fat. Leukemias: Cancers of blood-forming tissues, leading to an overproduction of abnormal blood cells. Lymphomas: Cancers of the lymphatic system. Gliomas: Tumors arising from glial cells in the brain.
