Lung Cancer Screening in Primary Care: Why Uptake Remains Low

Lung Cancer Screening in Primary Care Why Uptake Remains Low Abstract Lung cancer screening has demonstrated substantial potential in reducing disease-specific mortality by enabling early detection of malignancies at a treatable stage. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT), in particular, has been shown to markedly lower mortality among high-risk

Can MRI Detect Old Strokes? New Findings on Silent Brain Infarcts

Can MRI Detect Old Strokes? New Findings on Silent Brain Infarcts   Introduction The question of whether an old stroke appears on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) holds remarkable clinical importance, particularly in the context of silent brain infarcts (SBIs). These lesions, often asymptomatic, are increasingly recognized as markers
