Congrats to our PhD student @sanukitissera and the team on their latest publication, emphasizing the critical role of guideline-concordant treatment in improving survival for patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Check out the full article: https://t.co/TzvtiqwXbd

@shalinivinod13 @VickyJChin @swsydUNSW @SWSLHD well done!

Meeting multiple Quality Indicators (QIs) can significantly reduce mortality risk. Check out the latest research findings from over 12,000 #VLCR participants. #HealthcareOutcomes #QualityImprovement #CancerResearch #lungcancer

Lung cancer survival rates in Victoria have increased over the last 5 years. The latest VLCR Annual Report shows a 5-year survival rate of 32.5% for NSCLC and 13.6% for SCLC. #LungCancer #SurvivalRates #Healthcare #VLCR #CancerResearch

Stepped palliative care may be an effective strategy for maintaining QoL in advanced #lungcancer #nsclc Reshaping the care package for patients with advanced disease

@CathMurphySport @MelbourneRebels There are so many ways to address the #MelbourneRebels challenges but disenfranchising Australia's 2nd most populous state is a shameful disgrace #philwaugh and #rugbyaustralia or #rugbyNSW

No one wants to work on a long weekend but each time I do I realise what a privilege it is to support our patients and to work with the very talented nurses, ward staff, allied health, admin, residents and registrars in our teams #AlfredHealth #RespiratoryMedicine #AlfredECMO

#melbournerebels disenfranchised by #rugbyaustralia #pathetic can you imagine the #IRFU disenfranchising an Irish province

@TRUMP_ARMY_ @texasdav1 Who?

[rob stirling @drrobstirling]

Would #RugbyAustralia be an appropriate name for an organisation that shunned the #MelbourneRebels and Australia's second most populous state?

@PeterMacCC @nhmrc Big congratulations - well done!

Why are our lung cancer patients not presented to multi disciplinary meetings? There is now good evidence to support significant treatment and survival benefits. https://t.co/m1UVXbd13H @lungcancer @NSCLC_cancer @VLCR_AU @unwarrantedvariation @disparity @equity @Monash_SPHPM

[rob stirling @drrobstirling]

Multidisciplinary meeting presentation is a low-cost intervention providing substantial
benefits in receipt of treatment and survival. Up to 40% of patients remain unpresented,
risking disparity and inequity in treatment and outcomes. https://t.co/m1UVXbd13H @VLCR_AU #lungcancer

[IASLC @IASLC]

Did you know, before 2003, the IASLC endorsed several meetings on Targeted Therapy of Lung Cancer, & then took over the conference management/program. Ever since, the IASLC #TTLC meeting has been held in California, during the month of February, on an annual basis! #IASLC50 #LCSM

Did you know, video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is a type of minimally invasive surgery (introduced in the early 90's) for diagnosing/treating many thoracic conditions, including #lungcancer. It’s performed using a tiny tube w/a small video camera at the end. #LCSM #IASLC50

What do Lung Cancer patients think of existing Patient Reported Outcome Measures and think how they could be improved? How can we better engage lung cancer patients to develop more meaningful PROMs? See what we discovered. https://t.co/ckuoovd98A @VLCR_AU #lungcancer #PROMs
