WCLC 2024 | Promoting health equity in lung cancer in Brazil

Ricardo Sales dos Santos, MD, PhD, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, São Paulo, Brazil, comments on providing equitable care for lung cancer in Brazil. The emergence of mobile CT scanning to more remote communities have revealed more widespread disparities, where people may be offered screening, but still lack access to water and education. Further awareness on lung cancer is additionally needed, where people may mistake lung cancer for other conditions such as pneumonia. This interview took place at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, CA.
