Star Trek and medicine........

[Gingerbread Demon]

In ST V McCoy is shown a vision of his father and how he died. What was the disease he had, and was it cured sometime before he died?

Also was it Star Trek Voyager they mention they cured cancer?

 

[Mojochi]

McCoy's father died of an unnamed disease, which a cure was not found for until very shortly after his death.

Oh OK I remembered that wrong I guess. What about cancer wasn't that mentioned in one of the shows, I think Voyager or TNG said it had been cured?
