CT screening for lung cancer continues to gather momentum across Europe. Ahead of the French national radiology congress, JFR 2024, we caught up with Prof. Marie-Pierre Revel, PhD, to get her latest thoughts on the progress made in lung cancer screening.
In a video interview, she provides an update on the CASCADE study (Lung Cancer Screening in French women using low-dose CT and AI for DEtection) and speaks about the urgent need to boost awareness and increase the participation of women in deprived areas. She also gives details on SOLACE, an EU4Health project aimed at strengthening lung cancer screening strategies using structured low-dose CT. The plan is to break down the barriers to screening to ensure people across all social and economic groups can access it (go to www.solacelung.eu for more details).
On a personal level, Revel reflects on the 2.5 km sea swim she undertook in Spain on 22 September 2024 – the day before the video interview was recorded.
Prof. Revel is head of radiology at Hôpital Cochin in Paris and former president of the European Society of Thoracic Imaging (ESTI). She is chairperson of the ESR's Communication and Interdisciplinary Affairs Committee.
