Cause of death

With cancers, do members contributing to CK prefer to use "cancer (location)" or "location cancer"?

cancer (bowel) v. bowel cancer
cancer (pancreas) v. pancreatic cancer

The logs suggest both are popular, and I know I've used both formats on occasion.

Does it really matter which is used?
