Dr. Blackmon has dedicated her life to removing cancer from the chest. #LungCancerScreening
Screening isn’t just for early detection—it’s the front door for next-gen trials. If you’re eligible (>50yo & smoked >20 yrs)→ get scanned. I love to remove lung cancer w minimally invasive surgery & see patients CURED #LungCancerScreening
