Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A neoplasm is an abnormal growth of tissue, which may be either benign (not cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Analgesics are pain-relieving medications and do not treat neoplasms directly. Remission refers to a decrease or disappearance of symptoms of a disease, which may occur in response to treatment but does not equate to a neoplasm.
