| Popis: | Lung cancer screening (LCS) programmes have emerged over recent years around the world. LCS programmes present differences in delivery, inclusion criteria and resource allocation. On a national scale, only a few LCS programmes have been fully established, but more are anticipated to follow. Evidence has shown that, in combination with a low-dose chest computed tomography scan, smoking cessation should be offered as part of a LCS programme for improved patient outcomes. Promising tools in LCS include further refined risk prediction models, the use of biomarkers, artificial intelligence and radiomics. However, these tools require further study and clinical validation is required prior to routine implementation. |
