Summary

This completed study tested a tool called MyLungHealth, delivered through a patient portal, to help more people get screened for lung cancer. Over 31,000 participants aged 50-79 with a smoking history were involved. The tool aimed to identify who was eligible for screening and encourage them to get a low-dose CT scan.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: MyLungHealth patient portal intervention
What this could lead to: If successful, this approach could help more people get screened for lung cancer earlier, when it's more treatable.
What could go wrong: This is a completed study, so results are already known. The intervention may not work in all clinics or for all patients, and it relies on patients using the online portal.
