Smokers who quit cigarettes often turn to vaping as a safer alternative to smoking. However, a study found that ex-smokers who vape still face a high risk of lung cancer compared to those who quit nicotine completely.
The latest study presented at the annual meeting of the American Thoracic Society in San Diego suggests that among smokers who switched to vaping, the risk of lung cancer is particularly high in those already considered high-risk and recommended for screening.
