How could CT scans be called a waste in lung cancer screens?
October 28th, 2009
I AM responding to the physician whose letter proclaimed that CT scans were a proven waste of resources in screening for lung cancer (“State’s high court oversteps in ruling on cancer screenings,’’ Letters, Oct. 24). I am assuming that his mother did not die of lung cancer 35 years after she had quit smoking. Kara Kennedy would probably not be alive today except that her cancer was caught on a routine X-ray.
