Join us as we spotlight lung cancer screening, prevention, and treatment with this free three-part event at Cowell Family Cancer Center in Traverse City. - Expo -
Learn about why early intervention is important. 20 percent of people who develop lung cancer are non-smokers! A 5x5 foot learning lung will show you the lobes of the lung and you can interact with it. Attendees can sign up for lung cancer screenings and learn about what patients experience at Munson Healthcare.
- Technology -
Experience and play with Munson Healthcare’s new ION Robot! This new technology allows for a less invasive procedure and can take a biopsy of a nodule to see if it is cancer. Munson’s DaVinci Robot will also be on-hand for interaction.
- Panel -
Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from Munson Healthcare experts as well as patients and survivors in a panel discussion starting at 5:30 pm. The panel will include discussions on lung cancer statistics, risk factors, screening guidelines, and nutrition.
Smoking Cessation information and cold turkey sandwiches will be available.
