ABSTRACT
During 5 consecutive years of 100 mm photofluorography, 21 cases of primary lung cancer were discovered among 211,881 checked subjects in 54 factories in the suburbs of Beijing. Detection rate was 9.9/100,000. In the male smokers 40 years old or over, who comprised 13.7% of all examined with a detection rate of 55.0/100,000. Among the 21 cases, peripheral cancer was 61.9%, in which 38.4% were stage I 69.2% were treated by surgical resection, much higher than that of the central type. It may be concluded that photofluorography in mass screening has a certain value in early detection of the peripheral lung cancer and the male smokers 40 years or over should be examined as a priority group.
