Symposier - Lung Cancer screening CT scans may also identify heavy smokers with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
symposier.com — “Uploaded and shared in Youtube by: TheJAMAReport — Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or C-O-P-D is a major cause of death for heavy smokers. The onset of the disease can be insidious and is often underdiagnosed until it reaches a more advanced stage. A new study finds using computed tomography or C-T scans when screening smokers for lung cancer can also help detect C-O-P-D. Catherine Dolf has more in this week's JAMA Report.” View full resource at symposier.com

CT scans can help detect COPD among men smokers
news-medical.net — “Among men who were current or former heavy smokers, undergoing lung cancer screening with computed tomography (CT) scanning identified a substantial proportion who had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), suggesting that this method may be helpful as an additional tool in detecting COPD, according to a study in the October 26 issue of JAMA.” View full resource at news-medical.net

Blood test for lung cancer? Characteristic patterns in microRNA reveal disease
sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have identified characteristic patterns of molecules called microRNA in the blood of people with lung cancer that might reveal both the presence and aggressiveness of the disease, and perhaps who is at risk of developing it. These patterns may be detectable up to two years before the tumor is found by computed tomography (CT) scans. The findings could lead to a blood test for lung cancer.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Improved Prediction Of Lung Cancer Recurrence - QualityPoint Technologies
qualitypointtech.net — “A study published in the December issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine identified positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scans as a potentially useful tool for predicting local recurrence in lung cancer patients treated with radiofrequency ablation (RFA). RFA, which uses localized thermal energy to kill cancer cells, is increasingly used as an alternative treatment for patients unable to undergo surgery or other therapies to treat lung cancer...” View full resource at qualitypointtech.net
