Sometimes there is too much or too little things that doctors know...such as symptoms of cancer. Someone might have several symptoms, but not all can match up to be consistently diagnosed to a certain type of cancer. Or, with too much information that may not be of enough importance, doctors may not be able to clearly and quickly assess the cancer type due to the jumble of mismatched information that they have. it may have to do with the situation itself...
