Title:
Noninvasive Characterization of Indeterminate Pulmonary Nodules Detected on Chest High-Resolution Computed Tomography
Report Date:
2020-10-01
Abstract:
Lung cancer accounts for more cancer-related mortality than breast, prostate and colon cancer combined, and greater than half of lung cancer cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Both the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) and Nederlands-Leuvens Longkanker Screenings ONderzoek (NELSON)trial have demonstrated that low dose CT screening (LDCT) reduces mortality in high-risk patients. Implementation of LDCT screening has however been challenging.
