Summary
This pilot study will bring a mobile lung cancer screening clinic to neighborhoods in Boston with limited access to healthcare. About 125 high-risk adults (ages 50-80, current or former heavy smokers) will get screened and complete surveys about their social needs. Participants will also record a video message to their future selves to encourage annual screening, which will be sent back to them after one year. The goal is to see if this mobile approach is practical and acceptable for improving early detection.
