WCLC 2024 | Current and future perspectives on lung cancer screening in Latin America

Ricardo Sales dos Santos, MD, PhD, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, São Paulo, Brazil, discusses present challenges and opportunities for implementing lung cancer screening in Latin America. Whilst low-dose CT scans are important for screening, various issues persist in terms of fragmented healthcare systems. Public healthcare systems tend to lack the necessary infrastructure, and patients may not have readily accessible healthcare. This interview took place at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, CA.
