Lung Cancer Breakthrough: Screening Doubles Long-Term Survival
A groundbreaking multinational study, recently published in Radiology, has shed new light on the immense impact of early-stage lung cancer detection through low-dose computed tomography (CT) screening. The study's findings have far-reaching implications, suggesting that patients diagnosed with lung cancer via CT screening exhibit a remarkable 20-year survival rate of approximately 81%.
