Award-Winning Content
This case study earned an APEX Award of Publication Excellence for health and medical writing. These national awards, presented by Communication Concepts Inc., recognize exceptional editorial quality.
Inspired by the results of the National Lung Screening Trial, physicians at Montefiore Health System developed a lung cancer screening program to reduce mortality rates in their high-risk urban population. This program proves the life-saving power of early detection, which can boost the five-year survival rate for lung cancer from 5 to 90%.
This award-winning case study for the American College of Radiology, part of the ACR’s Imaging 3.0 initiative to highlight how radiologist-driven improvements are revolutionizing care, explores this life-saving initiative, which has screened more than 2,200 patients and detected 55 cancers — about half of them caught early enough to treat.
