Lung Cancer: Early Detection, Emerging Treatments and Why It All Matters

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States and often develops silently, without symptoms, until it’s advanced. Find out who should be screened and how the condition is diagnosed and treated. Learn how new therapies and promising clinical trials are improving outcomes and offering patients more options. Early detection saves lives — knowing the facts could make all the difference.

The UF Health Cancer Center recently received designation from the National Cancer Institute, or NCI, and joins the ranks of the country’s most distinguished cancer centers, becoming the 72nd in the United States and the only one in North Central Florida. The designation signifies that the UF Health Cancer Center has met rigorous standards in its leading-edge cancer research programs, advanced patient care and forward-thinking community outreach.
