TRANSCRIPT: Denise R. Aberle, M.D., University of California Los Angeles, discusses the need for an effective screening test.


Dr. Aberle: At this time there's no effective screening test for lung cancer, and yet it's the largest cause of cancer deaths in this country. I think many people don't understand the magnitude of the epidemic of lung cancer.
