In this episode, Dr Hannah Rosa reflects upon the poor lung cancer survival rates in the UK. She asks whether we are doing enough chest X-rays in primary care and whether we could be detecting lung cancers earlier. She delves further into this by exploring why diagnosing lung cancer is challenging, reviewing the guidelines and latest research and then discussing when we should continue to investigate for lung cancer even if the patient has had a normal chest X-ray. She finishes by reviewing the targeted lung health check programme that is currently being rolled out across England.
