Lung cancer incidence in Omsk region

Lung cancer incidence in the Omsk region was studied. Advanced lung cancer was shown to be commonly detected in patients of the 30 to 49 age group. For this patient group, adenocarcinoma was the most common histological type of lung cancer. The highest incidence of lung cancer was observed in both men and women aged 45-47 years. Thus, to improve early detection of lung cancer, the optimal age for lung cancer screening should be in the age range of 40-50 years.
