Radio Smart Talk for Wednesday, January 18:
One of the lessons learned from witf's Facing Cancer Together series over the last few months is that medical science has come a long way in how cancers are diagnosed and treated. A cancer diagnosis used to be about the same as a death sentence to many.
Research and technology has helped to change that. More people who were and are diagnosed with cancer are living and being treated successfully.
Meanwhile there are new treatments all the time.
For example, personalized healthcare or personalized medicine relating to cancer utilize technology. Oncologists use genetic, chemical and molecular information specific to the person being treated to target therapies that will be most effective.
On Wednesday's Radio Smart Talk, we'll examine high tech breakthroughs in cancer research, treatment and early detection. It truly is a whole new world.
WITF-TV's SmartTalk, along with Facing Cancer Together, takes a look at the hi-tech breakthroughs in cancer research, and how these advances have made treating cancer more personalized and individual. Don't miss “Making It Personal”--a special LIVE Community Forum this Thursday night at 8 on WITF-TV. WITF's Facing Cancer Together is supported by Lancaster General Health, Pinnacle Health and Wellspan Health.

Finally the Dr. asked if the house had been tested for radon and it came in at 14.4, meaning that remediation was needed.
You even did a program on Radon dated Jan. 11 2011. The doctor had his own house re mediated, but was way too passive in term so the threat... msg is to stop smoking... what about the rest of us like my mother in law who never smoked and died of lung cancer??
