LUCAP Australia

Are you ready for the National Lung Cancer Screening Program? #Lungcancer is the leading cause of cancer death, but early detection can save lives. Register for the @Lungfoundation CPD accredited webinar to learn practical implementation strategies: bit.ly/42dUGhM

We'll be there!

#AnyoneWithLungs can get lung cancer. #LUCAP researchers are working hard to ensure anyone with lung cancer has access to a high quality diagnostic, treatment & care services throughout their journey. #LungCancerAwarenessMonth #LCSM #lungcancer #CancerResearch @Charlies_Resp

25-30% of those diagnosed with lung cancer die within 3 months. It's time to take action! All donations and fundraising efforts towards TOGA go into creating opportunities for the Inspirational Research Grant.

Agreed standards of #lungacncer care for Aus & NZ published now: bit.ly/4dm9AXA. This represents a critical step for #LUCAP in improving care using CQIs. Now we can all compare our care against the agreed CQIs. #LCSM. With thanks to @Lungfoundation for support 🙏

The very wonderful @DrJessNash presents the latest WA #LUCAP data. The widespread health system failure for patients with #lungcancer is unacceptable. Our patients deserve better. #LCSM @markbrooke68 @Lungfoundation @CurtinUni @Charlies_Resp @CancerAustralia @tsanz_thoracic
