We're delighted that the UK National Screening Committee has recommended a nationwide lung cancer screening programme. This is fantastic news which hopefully lead to many thousands of patients surviving lung cancer through earlier diagnosis and treatment.

It’s so important to support @Roy_Castle_Lung. This is the only UK charity solely dedicated to lung cancer research and support.

Whilst advances in systemic treatment of advanced lung cancer have no doubt helped, surely there needs to be some mention of smoking cessation here - both as a likely larger contributor to this fall in mortality, and as a continuing strategy for driving it even lower?
U.S. cancer death rate sees its largest single-year drop – driven by precision medicine and #immunotherapy in lung cancer. Thank you members for helping develop these advances! @CBelaniMD, IASLC's CSO, has issued the following response to the news. #LCSM cnn.it/2Fw1UDA

Disappointing that the room is so empty at #WCLC2019 to see an inspiring talk from IASLC-award winning Emily Stone about Tobacco Control. Surely this is the most pressing issue at this conference.

This is a fantastic result for an amazing team. They are delivering a groundbreaking study which is already shaping national policy in co-delivering Lung Cancer Screening and Smoking Cessation. Hopefully more exciting results to come in due course.... @yorkshirecancer

Also great to see increased smoking cessation in the #NHS10yearplan. @LungHealthCheck is the first to co-locate smoking cessation and #LungCancerScreening in a community setting. Over 90% of smokers agreed to see our SCPs last month as part of the @YESSstudy. @yorkshirecancer

#NHS10yearplan also focusing on early diagnosis of COPD. Since Nov, 62 people found to possibly have undiagnosed COPD at their @LungHealthCheck and referred to the Community Respiratory Team - that's about 1 in 5 of all participants. @LeedsHospitals @LCHNHSTrust @yorkshirecancer

Great to see the emphasis on early diagnosis of cancer in the #NHS10yearplan.
Its release coincided with the busiest day yet for the @LungHealthCheck team. A record 156 telephone health checks on Monday alone before our visit to @ASDA Middleton in 2 weeks. @yorkshirecancer
