In this episode Steve explores how lung cancer affects people in Greater Manchester, finds out why the region is impacted far more than other parts of the country AND gets the lowdown on two brand new projects designed to give patients better outcomes and better experiences.
The first, a chest x-ray pilot, is all about diagnosing the cancer earlier, while the second is a new one stop clinic for lung cancer.
To explore all that and more, including how the pandemic impacted lung cancer, Steve is joined by Matt Evison, clinical lead for lung cancer at the GM Cancer Alliance; Seamus Grundy, a consultant respiratory physician; Kath Hewitt, lead specialist nurse for lung cancer, and Karen Peplow, who is a Macmillan lung cancer nurse specialist.
