Lung Screening Can Be Life Saving

Screening for Lung Cancer: A Great Start in Greater Waterbury

In November of 2014, The Harold Leever Regional Cancer Center, with its partners Saint Mary’s Hospital and Waterbury Hospital, collaborated with members of the local medical community in offering no-cost lung cancer screenings. The results were significant: the screenings led not only to cancer diagnoses in some patients, but also to incidental, life-saving findings, including the discovery of aneurysms, pulmonary embolisms and other important findings. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Dr. Jo-anne Cosgriff, Alliance Medical, Diagnostic Radiology Associates, Franklin Medical Group, Naugatuck Valley Radiology, Saint Mary’s Hospital, Waterbury Hospital, and Waterbury Pulmonary Associates for embracing this national movement and donating their time to benefit local patients.
