[Roentgenological and radiological examination of persons with an increased risk of lung cancer].
The present system of the detection of lung cancer does not provide sufficient efficacy of mass screening. The paper is concerned with the results of the examination of organized population. The following methods were used: questionnaires, large picture frame fluorography, cytological examination of the sputum, radiopulmonography with 133Xe, the determination of carcinoembryonic antigen and thyroid hormones in the blood serum. Altogether two groups were examined: 787 practically healthy persons with a high risk of lung cancer and 193 patients with verified lung cancer. The results obtained were correlated in both groups using various methods. Mass screening should include the isolation of high risk groups and the differentiation of persons by a degree of disease probability. Persons with a high risk of this disease are subjected to regular examination using large picture frame fluorography and cytology of the sputum. Radiopulmonography should be performed as an adjuvant diagnostic procedure to examine persons from high risk groups in the presence of changes on the fluorograms and atypical cells in the sputum.
