Lung Cancer Treatment at BIDMC
Our Lung Cancer Program offers world-class multidisciplinary expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of thoracic, esophageal and thymus cancers; cancer that has metastasized (spread) to the lung or chest cavity; and other thoracic and chest malignancies. We also treat a number of benign thoracic-related conditions through our Chest Disease Center.
Programs & Services

Lung Cancer Clinical Trials
Our lung cancer trials provide patients access to new, potentially more effective treatment options before they become more widely available.

Learn about our LungHealth™ screening program, providing low-dose computed tomography (CT) exams to screen patients at risk for developing lung cancer.
