Lung cancer is still a top killer of Hoosiers in Indiana. Health officials announced Friday that it is the leading cause of cancer deaths.
About 4,000 people die each year, and about 5m200 new cases of lung cancer are diagnosed.
November is Lung Cancer Awareness month and many are urging Hoosiers to try and quit smoking and to stop using tobacco products.
The Indiana Tobacco Quit Line can help you take the first steps to becoming smoke and tobacco free.
