The annual lung cancer mortality of smokers is 10 times that of nonsmokers
His risk of developing lung cancer is only slightly greater than that of a nonsmoker
Chest x-rays are a cost-effective and accurate way to screen for lung cancer
Spiral computed tomography scanning is currently recommended for screening in asymptomatic patients
Benign nodules are rarely seen on spiral CT, making it ideal for cancer screening
At present, there are no recommended radiographic studies to screen for lung cancer
Clubbing is the most common paraneoplastic syndrome associated with lung cancer
Aberrant hormone production is more common in NSCLC than in small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is the cause of clubbing in most patients with lung cancer
Hypercalcemia is more common in SCLC than in NSCLC

CT scan of the chest, head, and adrenal glands
CT scan of the chest, head, and adrenal glands, and a bone scan
CT scan of the chest and head, and a bone scan
Stage II disease is treated with surgical resection
