Asbestos
Cancer:
Asbestos is the name for a group of fibrous
minerals that are mined and mixed into building
materials. Asbestos
is very resistant to heat and chemicals. Asbestos has been used in a wide
range of manufactured goods including floor and ceiling tiles, coatings,
texturing materials and
thermal insulation. Currently, asbestos is used
only in products where another material has not
been found to replace it.
Generally, asbestos is not a health risk when bound together with a
substance that prevents the fibers from entering the environment. (

pleura), the lining of the abdominal cavity (the peritoneum)
or the lining

but no
longer rare, cancer that is difficult to diagnose and poorly
responsive to therapy. Malignant
mesothelioma is the most serious of all
asbestos-related diseases. ( Cancer%2Bpictures )
