Summary

This study planned to give low-dose chest CT scans to firefighters aged 35 and older to see how many had lung cancer, other cancers, or lung diseases from job-related smoke and chemical exposure. It was withdrawn before any firefighters were enrolled, so no results are available. The goal was to learn if routine scans could help catch cancers early in this high-risk group.
