Nova Scotia's lung screening program finds dozens of cancer cases in first 2 years
Diagnostic Radiology Professor Dr. Daria Manos was recently interviewed by the CBC to reflect on the success of the Nova Scotia Lung Screening Program two years after launching. Dr. Manos is the medical director of the Program.
"Lung cancer is often called a silent killer, as it doesn't become symptomatic until it advances to a late stage of the disease. About 80 per cent of people die within five years of a late stage diagnosis.
Nova Scotia's screening program is aiming to curb that.
It launched two years ago after more than a decade of advocacy by Dr. Daria Manos, a radiologist who now leads the program."
