flag Essentia Health in Duluth expanded its lung nodule clinic with a robotic bronchoscopy system to improve early lung cancer detection, amid rising screening demand.

flag Essentia Health in Duluth, Minnesota, has expanded its lung nodule clinic with the Noah Medical Galaxy System, a robotic bronchoscopy tool that uses real-time imaging to detect small lung nodules more accurately. flag The clinic, the only one of its kind in the region, serves adults aged 50 to 77 with significant smoking histories or recent quit status, aiming to boost early lung cancer detection. flag Despite low-dose CT scans reducing lung cancer deaths by 20% to 26%, only about 10% of eligible people get screened. flag The clinic has seen a surge in demand, with nearly 700 new CT scans performed last month, reflecting rising screening volumes in the Northland region.
