"The therapeutic effects of early lung cancer and advanced lung cancer are completely different. If lung cancer can be found early, about 8% of patients can be cured. Lung cancer is different from liver cancer or other cancers, and the treatment effect is relatively optimistic. After early detection and treatment, patients can work and live normally. " Dean Wu Shizhen said, "But the early symptoms of lung cancer are not obvious, except that the tumor growth site is close to the organs and hilum, the patients themselves will not have obvious discomfort. Therefore, I think the best way to find lung cancer early is physical examination. "
There are many ways to check lung cancer, including X-ray chest film, chest CT and Pat CT. Dean Wu Shixian suggested that people over 4 who have a history of smoking should have regular physical examinations, and it is best to have a low-dose CT examination every year.
"Ordinary CT is ok, but radiation itself will cause damage, especially to women's breasts, and it is not suitable for doing it every year. Chest X-ray examination is easily blocked by ribs and other parts, which affects the accuracy. Regular examination, the most suitable is low-dose CT. If there is abnormality in the lungs, it can be diagnosed by a doctor for further examination. "
