Differentiated thyroid cancer is common, but clinical treatment guidelines hadn't received an update in a decade. Now that's changing thanks to @UCSFSurgery's @Jasosamd. “The new guidelines bring important and significant evidence-based change,” she says. https://t.co/F0lfxrBVwW

Hope doesn’t wait, and neither should innovation. As Dr @JVelottaMD reminds us, our #lungcancer community can rally together, think creatively and drive breakthroughs now. It's all about better care and more time for those living with lung cancer. #StoriesOfLungCancer #LCAM25
