Did you know tomorrow is Lung Cancer Day? This day serves to raise awareness about lung cancer. This year's observance focuses on the power of unity, in the fight against lung cancer. Visit the CDC Lung Cancer Resource Page for an overview on lung cancer screening recommendations and to find a screening location near you. https://bit.ly/4foJTXL #TAPintoCancerControl #gwccTAP #LungCancer #cancerscreening #CancerResources

As part of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, we want to share some facts and figures with you about lung cancer screening.   Did you know that across the globe, lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer?   SOLACE is working to change this by implementing screening programmes that can detect lung cancer at an earlier stage when more treatment options are available.   #LCAM #LungHealth#SOLACELUNG #HealthUnion #EUCancerPlan #EU4Health

Today is World Lung Cancer Day, a time to raise awareness and support those affected by lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. At Freenome, we are developing blood tests to detect lung cancer early, when it is most treatable. The PROACT LUNG Study is intended to validate the clinical performance of a blood-based test for the early detection of lung cancer. We are currently enrolling as many as 20,000 individuals who meet specific criteria. Together, we can drive significant progress in early cancer detection. #WLCD24 #EarlyDetection #Freenome

Lung cancer screening can save lives, but for some reason people at risk for the disease aren't doing it. Less than 6% of American eligible for lung cancer screening actually get screened. That compares to 72% for colon cancer and 76% for breast cancer. Ask your doctor about CyPath Lung https://lnkd.in/g7nRUkE2 and how it can complement screening to improve the detection of early-stage lung cancer. #cypathlung #LungCancer #lungcancerscreening #lungcancerawareness

Anyone with lungs can get lung cancer! Lung cancer is by far the leading cause of cancer death in the US, accounting for about 1 in 5 of all cancer deaths. Each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. This World Cancer Day, take a moment to learn about lung cancer and how to reduce your risk. https://bit.ly/3yeICSp #worldlungcancerday #lungcancerawareness #lungcancerscreening

Early diagnosis matters. According to the National Cancer Institute, when Lung cancer is detected in Stage 1, the 5-year survival rate can be greater than 90%. Lung cancer screening, which can detect the disease at an earlier stage when it’s more curable, can help save lives. #NoahMedical #GalaxySystem #LungCancer #EarlyDiagnosisMatters Learn more about the impact of early diagnosis: Roadblocks to Lung Cancer Screening: Why Early Detection Is Still Falling Short https://hubs.ly/Q02Yq85K0

Annual lung cancer screenings using low-dose computed tomography (also referred to as LDCT) reduce lung cancer deaths by up to 20%, yet less than 6% of eligible Americans get screened routinely, according to the American Cancer Society. Early detection saves lives; if you meet the criteria, we encourage you to schedule a lung cancer screening at Saint Peter’s this #LungCancerAwarenessMonth.
