Summary

This study looks at whether offering lung cancer screening through telehealth (phone or video visits) can help more high-risk people get tested. Researchers will identify eligible smokers aged 50-80, confirm their eligibility by phone, and schedule either an in-person or telehealth visit for a low-dose CT scan at a nearby center. The goal is to see if telehealth increases screening rates and catches lung cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage.

Who is studied

The risk of lung cancer increases with age and smoking status and hence this age range is recommended for receiving lung cancer screening. As per USPSTF criteria our screening initiative will include individuals 50-80 years, subjects of all sex/gender and all race/ethnic groups. Screening eligible individuals included in our pilot study consisted of 54.4 % women, 75% of non-Hispanic whites, 24% non-Hispanic blacks and 1.2% belonged to 'other' race category. Non-Hispanic black individuals with smoking history have a higher risk of developing lung cancer than a non-Hispanic white. Very few Hispanic persons and women tend to accumulate fewer pack-years over a long period of time.
