This week I happened to see a man in my clinic who I had first met at the time of his diagnosis with metastatic lung cancer more than five years ago. He's from another part of Washington state, and this was his first time back with me to revisit treatment options.

When I joined GRACE earlier this month, a question was posed by a reader regarding whether there is an increasing frequency of the diagnosis of lung cancer in women who have never smoked. This is a very interesting question that those of us who specialize in lung cancer frequently wonder about.
