VGTem's Contribution to Lung Cancer

Dear Fujifilm Healthcare Family,

In this edition, we illuminate the pressing issue of lung cancer as we observe Lung Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know that lung cancer surpasses colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined, making it the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States? Join us as we shed light on the pivotal role of screening in our collective fight against this formidable disease.

As we focus on Lung Cancer Awareness Month, it's essential to be informed about the signs and symptoms that may indicate the presence of lung cancer. Early detection is key to improving outcomes and enhancing treatment effectiveness. Recent breakthroughs in research, diagnosis, and treatment offer hope to patients and families affected by lung cancer. Lung cancer screening emerges as a powerful tool, potentially saving tens of thousands of lives. Early detection not only significantly improves treatment effectiveness but also enhances overall survival rates. Sadly, symptoms often manifest in advanced stages, underscoring the critical importance of regular screenings.
