Pioneers in Lung Cancer Screening
好色tv Langone experts are innovators in lung cancer screening. Our thoracic radiologists are national leaders in their field and pioneered the use of CT scans for lung cancer screening in the 1990s. Our state-of-the-art CT equipment and medical expertise ensure that screening is performed appropriately, safely, and with proper follow up and oversight.
Since 2000, our Lung Cancer Screening Program has been part of the Early Detection Research Network of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). We participate in the American College of Radiology鈥檚 lung cancer screening registry, which ensures that we follow high quality standards. We also participate in the National Lung Cancer Roundtable鈥檚 lung cancer screening task group, which is dedicated to identifying best practices for delivering lung cancer screening services.
