Lung Cancer Screening Guidelines
Lung cancer screening guidelines are designed to provide guidance to health professionals in order to identify individuals who are at increased risk of developing lung cancer. Screening for lung cancer can help to detect the disease at an early stage, when treatment is more likely to be successful. Screening may involve chest imaging, sputum cytology, or biopsy. Proper screening can also help to prevent misdiagnoses and unnecessary treatments.
