  schema:description "Four different things get called the same thing in conversation and in the news, and the difference changes what the news means. A second cancer is a new disease with its own stage and its own chance of cure. A recurrence is the first one back. A metastasis is the first one somewhere else. Field cancerisation is a whole area of tissue that was already changed before any of them."@en ;
