There are early prognostic devices that detect the biomarkers early on... Not sure how many of them are commercialized. Lot of startups are trying to make it similar to pregnancy tests, so that you can detect it early.

Cancer cases on the rise in Rayalaseema

 

With contaminated water bodies, vegetative greens and lead particles in the dust contribute to the increase in the incidence of cancer in the region.
Rayalaseema region is also known to have huge deposits of barites, asbestos, uranium, limestone, granite, quartz that also are known to provide risk of carcinogens in the atmosphere.

 

The Thummalapalli Uranium project in Pulivendula area is said to be the most hazardous cancer causing activity going on in Kadapa district. With cement factories abounding in and around Pulivendula, Kamalapuram and Jammalamadugu areas in Kadapa, people are living without any cover to protect themselves from the monstrous cancer.

The Opposition Leader in the Assembly, Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has been urged to get the closure of these mines but nothing has happened so far.

Dr Babaiah said rampant industrialisation was leading to a high degree of pollution in air and water, changes in lifestyles, lack of physical exercises and food adulteration. These, in turn, were resulting in cancers like cervical cancer, breast cancer and stomach cancer.

Actually, India has one of the lowest cancer incidence rates. Definitely a lot more cancer cases, but that's because of the huge population. There is definitely an impact of life style, especially pesticides in foods. But there is also increase in some cancers (cervical) that is caused by viruses like HPV, which is contagious. Cancer is definitely more a disease for the developed world. But the fast rate of development and the changing demographics of India is one of the reasons.
