The @SOLACE Project was showcased at the @European Parliament in discussions hosted by MEP @Nicholas Papandreou on the future of lung cancer screening across Europe.
Key discussions included how countries are implementing targeted screening pilots, using mobile units to reach remote areas, and the development of new EU guidelines that will help more countries roll out life-saving screening programmes.
As a SOLACE partner, UMFCD is proud to be part of this important work to make early detection accessible to everyone who needs it across Europe.

Today is World #COPD Day. Comorbidities like COPD are common in people with lung cancer and can significantly affect their diagnosis and treatment.
As a partner in the EU-funded @SOLACE Project, which is strengthening lung cancer screening across Europe, we are helping tackle this challenge head-on by:
- Improving access to lung cancer screening for high-risk populations with conditions like #COPD, interstitial lung disease and cancer survivors
- Developing targeted information materials for physicians who treat patients with comorbidities

Today is the International Day of Radiology. As part of the EU-funded @SOLACE Project, which focuses on strengthening lung cancer screening across Europe, we’re highlighting the importance of radiology in low-dose CT screening for lung cancer.
Dr. @Viktoria Palm, a radiologist involved in #SOLACE, shared the challenges radiologists face such as high workloads, long hours and the increasing complexity of image analysis. She also discussed how SOLACE is supporting radiologists in testing artificial intelligence tools, which are designed to help ease these burdens. Watch her interview: https://h7.cl/1i6Dv

Tobacco use remains one of the leading causes of preventable lung cancer. Quitting smoking isn't easy, but it leads to lasting benefits: better health, more energy, and a longer life.
The @SOLACE Project has created multilingual graphics to help raise awareness about why stopping smoking matters. Learn more about lung cancer prevention:

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, Ilona's story is a powerful reminder: while fear of screening is natural, earlier detection of cancer can save lives and mean a quicker return to normality.
As a partner in the @SOLACE Project, we advocate for lung cancer screening programmes that save lives and support mental wellbeing throughout the cancer care journey.

Did you know, more people in Europe die from lung cancer than from any other cancer? But when found early through lung cancer screening, survival rates are vastly improved.
This Lung Cancer Awareness Month, the @SOLACE Project is raising awareness about early detection. The screening process is quick and painless.

Registration is now open for the European Cancer Screening & Early Detection Policy Summit
On 17–18 February 2026, leaders in cancer prevention will meet in Brussels and online to advance Europe’s agenda on early detection.
The @SOLACE Project will share its results on lung cancer screening – from pilot data to policy recommendations – alongside the PRAISE-U and TOGAS projects. Together, these initiatives are paving the way for new national screening programmes across the EU.
Hosted by @European Cancer Organisation and chaired by @Stella Kyriakides and @David Collingridge.

Tobacco-related harm affects people unequally. Those at higher risk often face the greatest barriers to care.
On World #NoTobacco Day, we spotlight the work of @SOLACE Project in supporting access to smoking cessation and lung cancer screening services for those most affected – including people who smoke, workers exposed to carcinogens, and low-income communities.
We are developing inclusive pathways to screening and integrating these efforts with broader prevention strategies.

This week, the @SOLACE Project will share stories highlighting how our partners are improving access to lung cancer screening across Europe – in multiple languages, with diverse voices and perspectives.
These videos showcase how #SOLACE is working to reduce cancer inequalities and improve outcomes through collaboration and innovation.

15 May theme: Health Equity and Social Determinants of Health
This week is European Public Health Week, with Thursday’s focus on health equity.
The @SOLACE Project is working to reduce disparities in lung cancer screening by engaging communities often left out – including over 5,000 people reached so far through targeted outreach.
To better reach individuals in historically underserved groups, such as those experiencing poverty, ethnic minorities and remote communities, as well as occupational medical staff, we are:
• Developing tailored, culturally relevant materials
• Working with trusted community leaders
• Supporting equitable access to early diagnosis
Screening should be available to all – no matter their background or postcode.

Consortium and Steering Committee in person meeting, Prague
We look forward to joining fellow @SOLACE Project partners in Prague on 15–16 April for the project’s 2025 consortium meeting. This will be a valuable opportunity to discuss progress, share expertise and shape the future of lung cancer screening in Europe.
With the project entering its final phase, collaboration is more important than ever to ensure screening programmes reach those who need them most.
It’s a key moment to review progress and shape the future of lung cancer screening in Europe.

International Day of Action for Women’s Health
On International Day of Action for Women’s Health, we shine a light on a major gap: lung cancer screening for women.
Women are less likely to participate in lung cancer screening, resulting in later diagnoses and poorer outcomes. Through the @SOLACE Project, we are:
• Raising awareness of this issue
- Working to ensure women are not left behind in cancer prevention efforts
It’s time to close the gap. Learn about #SOLACE: https://europeanlung.org/solace/
On International #Roma Day, we highlight the barriers Roma communities face in accessing life-saving care like #LungCancer screening.
Through #SOLACE, we provide culturally relevant information and empower community leaders to raise awareness. More info: https://europeanlung.org/solace/
Access to healthcare should not depend on where you live or your background. Yet, many Roma individuals in Croatia and Hungary face significant barriers to life-saving lung cancer screening, from lack of information to difficulties accessing care.
On International #Roma Day, we spotlight our work as part of the SOLACE Project, which engages hard-to-reach populations like the Roma community to ensure screening is accessible, trusted and tailored to their needs.
Alongside #SOLACE project partners, we:
- Provide clear, culturally relevant information about lung cancer screening
- Use trusted networks and direct outreach to improve participation
Every community deserves equal access to early detection. Learn about the SOLACE Project:

World Health Day
Lung cancer screening can prevent avoidable deaths by providing women earlier access to diagnosis and treatment, improving outcomes. However, women remain underrepresented in these life-saving programmes.
As part of the SOLACE Project, we are working to:
- Improve access to lung cancer screening so more women can benefit from early detection
- Raise awareness and empower women to take control of their lung health
- Make sure no woman is left behind in the fight against lung cancer
From healthy beginnings to healthy futures, every woman deserves access to high-quality care at every stage of life.
