Screening and early diagnosis of lung cancer may be crucial for survival.(Brief Article)
2003 FEB 6 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Lung cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in the United States, particularly among women. Researchers advise that refined screening practices may improve outcomes in patients with lung cancer.
"Technical developments in spiral CT scanning mean that considerably smaller lung cancers can now be identified than with previous methods of detection. Only time will tell whether this enhanced capability will result in a reduction in the number of deaths from lung cancer. This study discusses the implications and problems of screening for lung cancer"
"Screening implies a careful refinement of a range of clinical activities that must be routinely delivered in a carefully coordinated fashion to allow for the possibility of improved outcome," J.L. Mulshine and colleagues, National Cancer Institute, advised.
