Mesothelioma lawyer applauds Give a Scan program for lung cancer research
An innovative idea from the Lung Cancer Alliance based in Washington, DC is heartily endorsed by attorney John Langdoc, of Dallas-based law firm Baron & Budd, P.C., a well-known advocate for victims of mesothelioma and asbestos-related illness. The program, called Give a Scan, makes data available to cancer researchers all over the world by accepting donated CT scans and clinical data from patients and removing the identity before making it accessible for research free of charge. Anonymity protects the patient and empowers them to contribute without compromising privacy. The potential for sheer volume of raw data is unprecedented, giving researchers access to more information than has ever been possible.
