Cancer screening detects cancer before any symptoms appear. This kind of screening can include blood tests, urine tests, or medical imaging.  This imaging helps to detect cancer early, as it finds it before any symptoms are shown, so there is more chance of treating it successfully.

TIME's Alice Park explains how new cancer screening recommendations effect you

Cancer prevention and early detection are very important. Many factors can affect your risk of getting cancer. These methods don't prevent cancer; rather, they lower your risk(From textbook) Some of the ways you can prevent cancer are avoiding tobacco smoke, a healthy diet, keep a healthy body weight, avoid alcohol, staying physically active, and avoiding sun damage to your skin. (http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/preventing-cancer/Pages/diet-and-cancer.aspx)

There are so many causes of cancer that it's almost impossible to name all of them. But here's just a few. There's genetic cancer, cancer caused by smoking, cancer caused by sun and UV exposure and other carcinogens. Poisons in tobacco can weaken the body's immune system making it harder to kill the cancer cells. When cancer is cause by genetics its a little more complicated than it sounds, you see genetics means its a variation of hereditary characteristics. So in other words it just being passed on by the parents. That's pretty much it.

Causes of Cancer:
A carcinogen is something (chemical, radiation, etc) which can damage a cell and make it more likely to turn into a cancerous cell.
Tobacco. If you smoke, you are more likely to develop cancer of the lung, mouth, throat, oesophagus, bladder and pancreas
Workplace chemicals such as asbestos, benzene, formaldehyde, etc. If you have worked with these without protection you have an increased risk of developing certain cancers.
Age, The older you become, the more likely that you will develop a cancer, the ability to repair damaged cells, and the immune system which may destroy abnormal cells, may become less efficient with age.

The best way to prevent get rid of cancer is to get early screenings. The earlier you find the cancer, the more likely you are to survive. Screenings aren't perfect. Many times the screening will show up as nothing yet the cancer is there. Other times they over diagnose cancer that wouldn't harm the person in her lifetime. https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/screening

(textbook at the moment)
Previous and most commonly known treatments are Surgery, Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy.

Cancer treatment involves a team of medical specialists that may include surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and oncology nurses.

However, in todays day and age more and newer treatments have been developed and tested.

Biophotonics is a ten year old treatment that has progressively improving. The treatment uses beams of light energy to diagnose, monitor and treat cancer.

Immunotherapy
Newer  treatments known as Immunotherapies, was developed in 2015.

Bevaciuzumab
One form of immunotherapy is Bevaciuzumab helps new blood vessels grow, and prevent the tumor from growing. It stops the tumor by starving it of nutrients.

Monoclonal Antibodies.

Are molecules generated in a lab that target specific markers on the tumors, called antigens.

Bavituximab, a mAb that targets an immune-suppressing molecule in tumors, is being tested with docetaxel versus docetaxel alone in a phase III trial in patients with late-stage non-squamous NSCLC

Is smoking related to cancer?
Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. Smoking also increases the risk of other types of cancer. This can be avoided by staying away from other smokers, and not smoking in the first place. [from the textbook] The reason why cigarettes are so harmful is because of the poisonous substances they contain. Though there are warning labels on every package, cigarettes are highly addictive. This makes it hard to quit. Some symptoms of cancer related to smoking is shortness of breath, coughing, hoarse voice, and difficulty excersizing.

Smoking can be the cause for many types of cancer; most commonly lung cancer. Smoking damages the cells' lining the lungs. After continued smoking, lung cells can lose the ability to repair themselves, this allows the cancerous cells to spread in a chop-chop fashion. www.mayoclinic.org/dise ases-conditions/lung-cancer

A diagnosis is finding the issue causing a health problem. Doctors will test someone to see whether they have cancer or not with diagnostic tests. If cancer is present, the test also helps understand what type of cancer there is. To make sure the correct test is being done, a doctor looks at the person's age, medical condition, previous test results, type of cancer suspected and any symptoms shown. A popular test that is performed is a biopsy. A biopsy is the most efficient way of analyzing the tissue for cancerous cells in the person's tissue. After a biopsy, the tissue sample is viewed under a microscope. Diagnosing cancer early helps get treatment for the type of cancer as soon as possible. More information at cancer.ca or cancer.net.

The most common diagnostic tests are described below. When choosing a diagnostic test(s), your doctor will consider the person's age and medical condition, the type of cancer suspected, the severity of the symptoms, and previous test results. Learn more about diagnostic tests for a specific type of cancer. And, not everyone will need all available tests. Learn more about specific tests and procedures that are commonly used in cancer care but should be questioned in specific situations.

Cancer is a group of diseases in which cells grow and divide out of control. It results from a change in the DNA that controls the cell cycle. This change prevents the cells from staying in interphase for the normal amount of time. One or more of the checkpoints fails, so the cell and all of its subsequent daughter cells continue to divide uncontrollably [from the textbook].
