CT Scan Screening Reduces Lung Cancer Death Risk More Than X-rays - QualityPoint Technologies
qualitypointtech.net — “Patients screened with low-dose helical CT (computed tomography) have a 20% lower risk of dying from lung cancer compared to those screened with chest X-rays, researchers reported in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). The authors revealed their findings from NLST (National Lung Screening Trial), involving 53,000 individuals who either smoked heavily during the trial or used to do so. With over 94 million current or ex-smokers in the USA, lung cancer is the country's leading cause of can” View full resource at qualitypointtech.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
