Host: Andrew Wilner, MD, FACP, FAAN Guest: Neil Skolnik, MD The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) recently updated some of the recommendations for treating patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Two large conceptual changes occurred in this update: one is an increased emphasis on treating exacerbations, and the other is looking at decreasing mortality as an important treatment goal. Learn more about this and other key updates from the GOLD recommendations with Dr. Andrew Wilner and Dr. Neil Skolnik, Professor of Family and Community Medicine at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia.

Guest: Julie A. Barta, MD, ATSF Host: Peter J. Mazzone, MD, MPH, FCCP Early detection of lung cancer is difficult, with many cases going undetected until it is too late. New methods using minimally invasive liquids biopsy and molecular biomarkers are in development to improve early detection of lung cancer. Join Dr. Peter Mazzone and Dr. Julie Barta as they discuss the latest data around two new blood-based assays with promising results for detecting lung cancer in high-risk individuals and the potential for improving patient survival.
