The surge of cancer screening in the U.S. has increased the detection of precancerous lesions that are often low-risk but treated with the same methods as invasive cancers. A group of experts now argue that cancer is being overdiagnosed and overtreated. WSJ’s Monika Auger reports.Photo: Ronald Balassanian

My 75 year aunt had stage zero cancer. The doctors did radiation and surgery and tamoxifen. The radiation damaged her lung and she died. I believe she should have been left alone. At 75, watching that should would have lived 10 more years. I lost a lot of trust.

Well done- very important topic and applaud UCSF surgeon for research. She is right in her assertions and it takes guts to challenge conventional wisdom
