Dr. Misty Shields (Misty Dawn Shields) giving a wonderful fireside chat at the LiveLung (LiveLung) Small Cell Lung Cancer Summit. This meeting has been incredibly inspiring — I’ve met several small cell cancer survivors and learned their moving stories. Montessa Lee was diagnosed

Only 18% of high-risk people get screened for lung cancer. If you’re 50–80 & smoked ~20 yrs or know someone who did, talk to your doctor or call (339) 221-3158 to learn more. Screening saves lives. #LiveConnectedLiveWell

Important awareness piece by BBC News (UK) reminding us that lung cancer is on the rise in people who have never smoked. These are different types of lung cancer and we’re still learning why they occur: radon, pollution, unknown. All of us are at risk. bbc.com/future/article…

Check out this exciting new study led by Matthew Smeltzer Raymond Osarogiagbon, MBBS, FACP in JAMA Network Open!! Changing the USPSTF lung screening criteria from a 20-pack-year cutoff to a 20-year duration cutoff (Potter Criteria) greatly increases access to screening while maintaining screening
