Tools to Assess the Risks of Smoking
LUNG CANCER RISK: This prediction tool can assess a long-term smoker's risk of developing lung cancer in the next ten years based on a person's age, sex, smoking history, and asbestos exposure. www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/12463.cfm
SMOKER'S RISKS: Create a graph showing future risks (for lung cancer or all-cause mortality) and find out how these will decrease when you stop smoking. http://smokefree.gov/smokersrisk/
