Description
Early detection of lung cancer can save lives for those at high risk and, in turn, reduce the lung cancer burden in the U.S. In this webinar, Dr. Albert A. Rizzo will discuss the American Thoracic Society and American Lung Association’s Lung Cancer Screening Implementation Guide, which outlines how to design, implement and conduct a lung cancer screening program. He will also highlight the mobile capabilities that exist in a few communities as part of a multifaceted preventive care strategy.
Speaker: Albert A. Rizzo, M.D., FCCP, FACP, serves as chief medical officer of American Lung Association and is also chief of Section of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at ChristianaCare in Newark, Delaware
