The VCCC Alliance values the opportunity to contribute to Australia’s Lung Cancer Screening Advisory Group.
In 2020, over 13,000 Australians are expected to be diagnosed with lung cancer and the number of new cases of lung cases being diagnosed is continuing to increase year by year. Unlike other Australians, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, lung cancer is both the most frequent cancer diagnosis and the leading cause of cancer death, both occurring at a younger age.
