What types of cancers does a lymph node biopsy detect?


What types of cancers does a lymph node biopsy detect?
Does a lymph node biopsy detect Lymphomas, Leukemia, AND cancers that have metastasized to that node? I just had biopsies done in my neck and groin and was told they were negative for cancer. I just want to know that this news rules out Lymphoma, Leukemia, and cancer that could have metastasized and englarged those nodes (i.e. melanoma)... Thanks!

Any cancer in the lymph node examined will be found.

Vitamin D Prevents Cancer: Is It True?







In a new study, researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center used a complex computer prediction model to determine that intake of vitamin D3 and calcium would prevent 58000 new cases of breast cancer and 49000 new cases of colorectal cancer annually in the US and Canada. The researchers model also predicted that 75% of deaths from these cancers could be prevented with adequate intake of vitamin D3 and calcium.
