Brief Summary:
Low-dose CT (LDCT) screening for lung cancer (LCS) has been shown to reduce lung cancer specific mortality in multiple randomised controlled trials.However, although LDCT screening has been demonstrated to reduce cancer- specific mortality, there remain outstanding questions regarding how screening can be implemented.In particular, indeterminate nodules are common, and can be challenging to distinguish from benign nodules on CT appearances alone.Furthermore, distinguishing cancers which are likely to become…
