Brits over 55 who smoke or have given it up should be screened for lung cancer in a bid to reduce deaths from the disease, says a body of health experts.
The UK National Screening Committee (UKNSC) has called for action to help improve early diagnosis for the cancer which causes most deaths in the UK each year.
Successful screening programmes are already in place for breast, cervical and bowel cancers which has led to thousands of lives being saved each year.
