Cancer is started by cells that begin reproducing at a very high rate, due to mutation of their DNA. In all cells, there are genes containing DNA that regulate what the cell does. A normal cell reproduces only at the rate that the body needs for normal growth or to replace dead cells. When a normal cell has damage to its DNA, it either repairs the damage or dies. A normal cell dies when it gets old, even if it has never been damaged. If a cell receives just the right (or wrong!) damage to its DNA, the gene that limits the cell's reproduction rate switches off and the gene that would cause the cell to die when old or damaged switches off; the gene that controls the cell's damage-repair mechanism switches off. You now have a cancer cell, a damaged cell which does not try to repair its internal damage, which starts rapidly making copies of its damaged self; worst of all, this damaged cell lives forever as do all of its copies. Because it is so vigorous, it can invade and kill normal cells nearby. Cancer cells can be killed by medical treatment, but at this time only by drastic methods that also kill a lot of normal cells. The damage to a cell's DNA can come from sources such as ionizing radiation or carcinogenic chemicals, or from a simple physical injury such as falling or being hit; or it can come from a random reproduction error when the cell is being formed.
A non-cancerous abnormal cell is called a benign cell. Benign cells can form growths or tumors that do not invade surrounding tissues or spread to other parts of the body, unlike malignant (cancerous) cells. While benign tumors can still cause health issues depending on their size and location, they are generally considered less harmful than cancerous tumors.
Cancerous cells are cells that have undergone genetic mutations that cause them to grow and divide uncontrollably. These cells can form a mass of tissue called a tumor. Tumors can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors: These tumors are non-cancerous and typically do not invade nearby tissues or spread to other parts of the body. They may grow slowly and often have well-defined borders. Malignant tumors: These tumors are cancerous and can invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body through a process called metastasis. Malignant tumors can be further categorized based on their tissue of origin (e.g., carcinoma, sarcoma, lymphoma, leukemia). So, cancerous cells are the cells that make up malignant tumors, whereas benign tumors are made up of non-cancerous cells. The distinction between benign and malignant tumors is crucial for determining treatment strategies and assessing prognosis.
Non-cancerous cells that do not affect health are referred to as normal cells. These cells function properly within the body and perform their intended roles without causing harm or disrupting the normal functioning of tissues and organs.
Malignant tumor cells are cancerous, tend to grow rapidly, spread to other parts of the body, and can be life-threatening. Benign tumor cells are non-cancerous, grow slowly, do not invade nearby tissues, and are typically not life-threatening.
Dividing normal human cells are called somatic cells. These cells undergo the process of mitosis to divide and create identical daughter cells with the same genetic material.

Answer: relaxation, pain control for medical patients, can kill cells that may become cancerous, its non-addictive, its non-toxic....
It is a non-cancerous condition
A lesion that is dangerous or life-threatening.
Malignant tumor cells are cancerous, tend to grow rapidly, spread to other parts of the body, and can be life-threatening. Benign tumor cells are non-cancerous, grow slowly, do not invade nearby tissues, and are typically not life-threatening.
Radiation therapy, when given in cancer, burns tumor cells as well as surrounding cells so that any harboring cancerous cells will be destroyed. But this is quite a painful process with many side effects, and nothing less life threatening than cancer justify its use. If its given in non cancerous tumors, it will destroy it. But its needless to use it in non cancerous conditions where surgery could do the work for you and with a lot less side effects. Use of radiation in non cancerous tumors is like using an atom bomb in place of a dynamite.

Unrestrained of cells in or on the body can be a tumor. This can be non-cancerous or cancerous. Since you are looking at a "disease caused by unrestrained growth of abnormal cells", I would suggest cancer.Non-cancerous growth can cause problems that can be called diseases. A large growth of non-cancerous cells can cause problems of the pancreas called pancreatitis.Cancerous growths of the pancreas can cause blockage of the bile ducts causing jaundice.There are many other example of these.
