NCT ID NCT06000683
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a program to help more people at high risk for lung cancer get a low-dose CT scan, which can catch the disease early and save lives. The program included notifying doctors, educating patients, offering financial help, and reminding patients to talk about screening during their visit. 79 people aged 50-80 with a heavy smoking history took part. The goal was to see if these steps increased the number of screening orders and completed scans within six months.
