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
