Lung cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer, is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and was the highest cancer incidence among men referred to Archbold's oncology center in 2020. However, lung cancer deaths are decreasing due to advances in early detection and treatment. That is why Archbold is taking a thorough approach to developing a lung cancer program led by new lung nodule navigator Brittni Pannell, RN.
According to the American Cancer Society, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death, making up almost 25% of all cancer deaths. However, lung cancer deaths continue to drop partly due to early detection and treatment advances. Lung cancer is commonly diagnosed by a biopsy of a suspicious spot on your lung, commonly called a nodule. A biopsy involves obtaining a tissue sample from the suspicious area and examining the cells. However, some areas of the lung are hard to get to and previously were difficult to navigate with other biopsy technology. Archbold is pleased to now offer patients access to the Ion Endoluminal System for lung biopsies to better access hard-to-reach areas in the lung.
