🩺 Pret vēzi ar mērķētākiem ieročiem

Latvijā joprojām daudzi uz skrīningiem raugās ar piesardzību, kamēr Skandināvijā cilvēki uzticas valsts aicinājumam un aktīvi piedalās veselības pārbaudēs. Kā norāda profesors Mārcis Leja, tas saistīts ar vēsturisko pieredzi – mēs joprojām mācāmies uzticēties sistēmai un balstīt lēmumus pierādījumos, nevis mītos.

👩‍⚕️ Nākotnē skrīningi kļūs mērķētāki – piemēram, plaušu vēža pārbaudēm īpaši aicinās cilvēkus ar augstāku risku, tostarp smēķētājus.

🎧 Vairāk par to – intervijā “Radio Naba” raidījumā “Zinātnes vārdā”:
