The scan only takes a few minutes and is not painful, the CDC adds. Screening means getting the test to check for a disease when there are no symptoms or history. The goal is to help spot potential signs ofcancerearly, when there's a greater chance of bettertreatment outcomes. ...
There is a steady downward trend in the number of lung cancer cases over the past couple of decades as the number of people smoking continues to decline2. Recent advances in the treatment of lung cancer as well as increased detection of early-stage cancer through screening have also contribu...
