John Underwood, a retired police officer of 25 years, has been a smoker most of his life. When he drastically started losing weight unexpectedly, his doctor referred him for a lung cancer screening. After tumors were identified on each of John's lungs, he underwent a robotic bronchoscopy, an advanced diagnostic procedure that allows physicians to safely and accurately detect lung cancer.
John was uniquely diagnosed with two different types of cancer in his lungs. Fortunately, his cancer was diagnosed at its early stages, which allowed John to get on a treatment path to remission.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the U.S. according to the American Cancer. Society. In 2021, more than 235,000 Americans will be diagnosed with Lung Cancer with over 131,000 lung cancer-related deaths.
