The Rescue Lung Society Board is excited to open registration for the Rescue Lung Society 2024 Annual Conference on Lung Cancer Screening on Oct 25 and 26. The theme of the conference is Lung Cancer Screening Today and Tomorrow. We are going back to the beautiful Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor Hotel (Explore the Hotel) for the in-person meeting and we’ll be hosting the conference virtually for those unable to attend in person. CME will be offered for the sessions.

We have a stellar line-up of topics, speakers and moderators. The agenda includes speaker and panel discussions on CT lung screening in clinical practice, CT lung screening quality indicators, stigma, screening criteria and addressing disparities, research, clinical trials and studies, cancer screening biomarkers and AI, and advocacy and legislative initiatives.  We have several pro-con discussions planned and expect to have some lively discussions with the speakers and the audience.  One of these is a 3-way debate on the topic “Is there an acceptable benign resection rate?” with Brendon Stiles, Montefiore, Dan Raz, City of Hope and Mara Antonoff, MD Anderson. Andrea McKee will be presenting the second annual Brady McKee Excellence in CT Lung Screening Award.

We received a lot of positive feedback after last years’ conference. It convinced us to have the next conference this year instead of waiting two years as we had initially planned. Please join us in-person or virtually. We look forward to seeing you.
