Questions About Cancer?

The Cancer Information Service answers questions about cancer.

Whether you are a patient, family member, friend, health professional or a school child writing a report, the Cancer Information Service provides answers to your questions about cancer. As a follow-up to your question, the CIS often provides written materials from a variety of national organizations.

The Cancer Information Service provides information on:

  • Risk factors for cancer and how to reduce your risk
  • Screening tests for cancer
  • Symptoms
  • Diagnostic tests
  • Any type of cancer
  • Treatment options, including clinical trials
  • Coping skills
  • Community resources
  • Cancer Statistics

Cancer Information Service staff members do not make medical recommendations, but respond to general questions about cancer and act as an information resource.
