Description

The image illustrates inflamed tissue infiltrated by a tumor mass (black), which is being targeted by cells of the adaptive immune system (blue). Tumors can be considered the most complex group of human diseases, causing the death of up to a quarter of the population worldwide. Benign tumors grow slowly and bulge or displace, but they do not invade local vessels or adjacent organs. In contrast, malignant types of tumors are extremely serious because they commonly grow rapidly and frequently and destroy adjacent structures, including blood vessels and lymphatic vessels.
