A new study finds the five-year lung cancer survival rate in Wisconsin is slightly better than the national average. The “State of Lung Cancer” report shows the survival rate in Wisconsin at 22-point-three percent while the U-S average is 21-point-seven percent. Health officials say there is room for improvement. Dona Wininsky of the American Lung Association says Wisconsin should not settle for average with all the great resources available in the state. More than 41-hundred cases of lung cancer will be diagnosed this year in Wisconsin.
