Ten to 15 years ago, saying the words ‘lung cancer’ and ‘cure’ in the same sentence was rare. Today, there have been many advances in lung cancer detection and treatment that have greatly impacted survival rates. If we catch lung cancer early, we can potentially cure it. Early detection saves lives. That is the No. 1 reason why screening is so important.
