Abstract
Cancer has emerged as a major public health concern owing to its magnitude, worldwide distribution, and impact on the quality of life, financial burden on the patient/family/society/ health care delivery system, and associated mortality . Recent estimates have revealed that in the year 2012, almost 14.1 million new cancer cases have been reported and 8.2 million cancer deaths have occurred . However, the issue of concern is that around 57% of the new cancer cases and 65% of the reported mortalities are from developing nations.
