Estela Rodriguez: Why are we still not screening people for lung cancer?

Estela Rodriguez, Associate Director of Community Outreach and Co-Lead of the Thoracic Site Disease Group of the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, shared a post on X:

“A good reminder of Number Needed to Screen (NNS) to prevent one death:

  • Pap smear: 38
  • LDCT for lung cancer: 130
  • Colonoscopy:455
  • Mammography:1724

Why are we still not screening people for lung cancer?”
