Cancerous(英[ˈkænsərəs]/美[ˈkænsərəs])是英語形容詞,意為“癌的;生癌的;像癌的”,用於描述與癌症相關的病理特徵,屬醫學領域術語。該詞在柯林斯詞典中被定義為“由癌症產生的細胞或增生組織”,既可指腫瘤的癌變屬性(如癌性腫瘤),也可表征患者的病理狀態(如癌症患者)。其衍生短語涵蓋癌性惡病質、癌性疼痛等臨床症狀,並延伸至併發症及治療領域。
作為專業術語,cancerous常見於醫學文獻,用於描述癌變組織(如“癌性甲狀腺”)、癌細胞檢測(如“無癌細胞殘留”)及病理對比(如“正常組織與癌變組織的基因表達”)等場景。該詞在英語考試(如托福、雅思)中常考釋義包含“惡性癌變的”及引申義“步步擴散的”,例句覆蓋醫學案例(如“肺部惡性腫瘤”)與社會學比喻(如“無序擴張對景觀的破壞”)。其近義詞包括malignant,反義詞為benign,常與tumor、melanoma等醫學辭彙關聯。
