Lung Cancer Research - Mayo Clinic

Lung cancer is one of the most lethal forms of cancer worldwide. With a deficit of effective screening tools for lung cancer, the disease is oftentimes discovered and diagnosed in more advanced, later stages.
Steven Schild, M.D., Chair of the department of radiology at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, explains how Mayo Clinic is helping to design lung cancer treatment trials aimed at promoting a higher cure rate, a lower toxicity in treatment, with outcomes that will serve patients needs best.

Its a very interesting point of view, even if lung cancer its not easy to diagnose because of the quality of screening tests, its easy to prevent it, mostly changing some of our daily habits will significatively reduce or risk to develop lung Cancer. Thanks for sharing this video.
