Tumors are “irradiated”, NOT RADIATED. Why? Because tumors don’t emit radiation. Thank you.

Marie Curie died in 1934, but her tomb is still radioactive. Marie Curie stands among the greatest scientists in history. She pioneered the field of radioactivity (a word she invented), isolated two new elements (polonium and radium), laid the groundwork for radiation-based

It’s time to UNCOMPLICATE lung screening and use a more common sense approach. I trust @RajaFlores agrees.
Terrific piece by Simar Bajaj (@simarsbajaj) on why lung cancer screening is still severely underused—despite the potential to save 4× more lives. It also raises an important question: are today’s lung cancer screening criteria too cumbersome, and could we simplify eligibility

Best title ever for an editorial about lung cancer screening? @alexandra_p_24 @LeciaSequist @ChiFuJeffYang
💬 Editorial: #LungCancer screening with low-dose CT is recommended for high-risk adults, but low uptake and restrictive eligibility leave many at risk. Recent policy changes and emerging risk stratification tools may further improve detection. https://t.co/Rv14KcXhxS

Everyone should also toss and turn every night they try to sleep because of the horror this represents. This issue isn’t academic. It’s NEGLECT!!
In 2024, only 19% of individuals in the US eligible for annual lung cancer screening underwent screening, preventing an estimated 15 000 deaths. Full uptake could prevent 3 times as many deaths. #LungCancer 🧵 https://t.co/PcmpCo5183
