A diagram that shows the difference between benign tumors and benign tumors. The diagram is divided into two sections. On the left side of the image there is a line graph that shows that benign (not cancer) tumor cells grow only locally and cannot spread by invasion or metastasis. On the right side there are two types of tumors - benign (cancer) cells invade neighboring tissues enter blood vessels and metastasize to different sites. The tumor cells are shown in green and pink colors while the tumor cells in red are shown as red and green. The background is blue and the diagram is accompanied by text that explains the differences between the two types.
