ESR co-hosts webinar on lung cancer screening in the context of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan

 

Given the  available clinical evidence and the political momentum behind the Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan, the European Society of Radiology (ESR), COCIR and Lung Cancer Europe (LuCE) are hosting a webinar entitled “How can Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan drive implementation of lung cancer screening programmes across Europe” on 4 November. Clinical experts, industry, and patient advocates will discuss, on the occasion of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, what steps should be undertaken to develop and implement lung cancer screening programmes in Europe.
