adenocarcinoma means cancer arising in glandular tissue or a gland. It would be typed by the affected organ, gland or body location.
Examples would be:
adenocaricnoma of the lung
adenocaricnoma of the stomach
adenocaricnoma of the breast
adenocaricnoma of the pancreas
and numerous others

Prostate has a specific marker.
But usually using signs and symptoms they can find it. And from there they do a biopsy to see if it is cancer or not.
