Sponsor's own description
Tobacco smoke is the most common source of exposure to carcinogens in humans. Indeed, the smoke contains about 1010 particles per ml and 4800 chemical compounds, at least 66 are carcinogenic. Tobacco smoke is the leading preventable cause of cancer in humans since it is responsible for lung cancer, upper aerodigestive tract (mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus), nasal cavity and sinuses, stomach, pancreas, liver, bladder, kidney, uterine cervix, and some myeloid leukemias. This study aims to evaluate the combined effect of the scanner and the search for circulating tumor cells (CTC) on screening for tobacco-related cancers, accompanying smokers to cessation and addressing the psychological impact this approach.
