Mobile scans aim to catch lung cancer earlier in younger smokers

NCT ID NCT04577599

Summary

This study is testing whether mobile low-dose CT scans can effectively detect lung cancer in younger, high-risk smokers. It focuses on people aged 40-54 with a heavy smoking history (30+ pack-years) in North and South Carolina. The goal is to see if starting screening earlier than current guidelines can help find cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage.
