The ALCSI Podcast is an program of the American Lung Cancer Screening Initiative to educate the public on lung cancer and lung cancer screening. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the world. Large clinical trials have shown that lung cancer screening through low-dose computed tomography (CT) reduces lung cancer mortality by up to 33%. In fact, if every high-risk American were to get screened right now, more than 30,000 lives could be saved this year alone. However, less than 5% of high-risk Americans are currently getting screened. Visit https://www.alcsi.org/ to learn more.
