A new study by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that the quality of care for lung cancer in the U.S. varies widely. The findings show that high-quality care is associated with improved overall survival rates among patients with lung cancer. Pictured is the study’s senior author, Varun Puri, MD, a thoracic surgeon and professor of surgery at the School of Medicine, during a surgery.
