About this month's program
"Lung Cancer: Knowledge is your best defense"

Do you think that only smokers get lung cancer? It may surprise you that lung cancer in never-smokers is now considered the sixth most common cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Overall, 10-15% of lung cancers occur in non-smokers, another 50% occur in former smokers.

Kazumi Chino, M.D. Dr. Kazumi Chino with Unity's Faith, Hope and Love Cancer Center will discuss risk factors, screening, symptoms, diagnosis, basic staging and treatment, helping you increase your knowledge of lung cancer.
