Memorial Cancer Institute Unveils New Tool In Fight Against Lung Cancer

PEMBROKE PINES (CBSMiami) – Ahead of World Cancer Day, Memorial Cancer Institute has unveiled a new tool in the fight against lung cancer.

Memorial Cancer Institute is the first in South Florida to use the innovative technology for early detection of lung cancer.
