Christine Garcia: Striking New Lung Cancer Screening Data

Christine Garcia, Director of the Hematology and Oncology Fellowship Program at Weill Cornell Medicine, shared a post on X:

”Striking new lung cancer screening data: You need to screen fewer high-risk never-smokers to catch a cancer than heavy smokers.

Number Needed to Screen (NNS):

  • TALENT (Never-smokers) =150
  • NELSON (Smokers) = 222
  • NLST (Smokers) = 320.”
