Oncimmune® (USA) LLC Experiences Increased Interest in EarlyCDT®-Lung as Doctors Place New Emphasis on Lung Cancer Screening with CT, in Response to Landmark NLST Study - Yahoo! News
news.yahoo.com — “From Yahoo! News: Research released by the National Lung Cancer Screening Trials (NLST) found that early detection, enabled by low-dose CT scans, resulted in a 20% reduction in lung cancer mortality in a high risk patient population. Doctors and researchers at Oncimmune® are already reporting that these NLST findings, announced earlier this year, are having a noticeable impact on the way physicianses diagnose and monitor lung cancer.DeSoto, Kan. ...” View full resource at news.yahoo.com

Study confirms benefits of low-dose spiral CT scans for lung cancer detection
news-medical.net — “The New England Journal of Medicine's (NEJM) headline today read, "Reduced Lung Cancer Mortality with Low-Dose Computed Tomographic CT Screening," ending a long controversy over the use of an existing but underutilized early detection tool for those at risk for Lung Cancer. Preliminary results of the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) were first released on November 4, 2010 and confirmed today.” View full resource at news-medical.net

CT scans unleash a breakthrough in catching early stage lung cancer
eurekalert.org — “The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) is the first scientific study that provides clear evidence that CT screening significantly reduces the death rate due to lung cancer. NLST data shows 20 percent fewer lung cancer deaths among trial participants who had the CT scan compared with the chest X-ray. Until now, no screening test for lung cancer has proven effective in detecting tumors at an early, more treatable stage.” View full resource at eurekalert.org
