“Role model of the times”, chief president of Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital Xu Kecheng also went to the site of free clinic and solved people’s problem about cancer prevention. In an interview with reporters of Guangdong TV Station and Guangzhou TV Station, he said that cancer has been the leading killer nowadays, but people still lack of awareness. Medical technology becomes more and more advanced. For example, except three conventional cancer treatments including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, there are cryoablation, nanoknife therapy (irreversible electroporation), immunotherapy etc. But these are just remedies. Taking preventive measures is the key.

Taking example for lung cancer, the No.1 killer, Xu Kecheng said, whether man or woman, morbidity and mortality of lung cancer is highest. Lung cancer prevention demands all man to quit smoking. Meanwhile, related departments of the government should take actions to improve air quality and reduce haze pollution. Besides, people should attach importance to screening for cancer prevention. Having treatment early makes difference on treatment effect.

“Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital often holds free clinic which is aim at raising residents’ awareness of prevention and passing more health knowledge to them. Every Thursday and Saturday morning, I organize free clinic at FUDA, which is for realizing my desire for serving more patients.”
