How Can One Differentiate Between Benign and Malignant Tumors?
Differentiating between benign and malignant tumors often requires a comprehensive diagnostic approach. Imaging studies can provide clues based on the tumor’s characteristics, such as its shape, size, and growth pattern. However, a definitive diagnosis typically requires a biopsy and histological examination. Malignant tumors often show signs of invasive growth, irregular borders, and abnormal cellular structures, whereas benign tumors have well-defined borders and uniform cells.
