The Spanish Society of Medical Radiology (SERAM) has promised to support the Lung Ambition Alliance program in Spain in recognition of International Lung Day on 17 November.
The program aims to double the five-year survival rate of lung cancer by 2025. More than half of lung cancer cases are diagnosed at advanced stages, and only 5% of these patients live for five years.
SERAM and other local health organizations will participate in the alliance by developing a citizen awareness campaign through social networks, using the hashtag #CáncerDePulmOFF to stress the importance of early diagnosis.
