SATURDAY, June 2 (HealthDay News) -- U.S. researchers say they&#39;ve developed new tests that can determine the precise genetic pathways or &quot;signatures&quot; that lead to lung cancer.

The first genetic map of colon and  breast cancer shows that nearly 200 mutated genes -- most of  them previously unknown -- help tumors start, grow and spread,  U.S. researchers reported on Thursday.
