Comprehensive, relevant and insightful conversations about health and medicine happen here… on MedStar Health Doc Talk.
Lung cancer has historically been the nation’s deadliest cancer, claiming the lives of more than 135,000 annually. But with advances in screening for lung cancer in recent years, along with new screening guidelines, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is hoping to change these statistics. In fact, the new guidelines nearly double the number of people eligible for lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography (CT) scans. During this podcast, Dr. Duane Monteith, regional director of Thoracic Surgery for MedStar Health in the Baltimore Region, discusses the new screening guidelines and why they beneficial.
Dr. Monteith sees patients at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center and MedStar Health Bel Air Medical Campus.
