At Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, our highly coordinated team approach to treating lung and thoracic cancer brings world-class expertise, technology, and innovative treatment options together to help patients get the best possible outcome and maintain quality of life before, during and after treatment.

Led by experts in treating lung and thoracic cancer, patients have access to a wide range of treatments and treatment combinations, including the most promising therapies and clinical trials for:

  • Non-small cell lung cancer
  • Small cell lung cancer
  • Mesothelioma
  • Mediastinal tumors

They discuss and consider various treatment options, focusing on their areas of expertise, and recommend a customized treatment plan procedures to meet patient needs.
