The American Cancer Society (ACS) has updated its guidelines for lung cancer screening, recommending that nearly 5 million more Americans undergo CT scans. This marks the first change to the screening recommendations in a decade.

Placing prompts in the electronic health record, reminding primary care physicians of patients’ potential eligibility for lung cancer screening, can increase the use of low-dose CT, according to a new analysis.

New data derived from the National Lung Screening Trial reveal that more than 30% of low dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screenings contain significant incidental findings that warrant radiologists’ attention.

PET/MRI achieves similar or superior results to PET/CT for the detection of pulmonary malignancies, according to new research.

Risk model-based screening for lung cancer accounting for personal risk may be more cost-effective than age- and smoking history-based screening recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), according to a cost-effectiveness analysis.

An AI tool named “Sybil” was able to forecast both short- and long-term lung cancer risk based on a single low-dose CT (LDCT) scan, researchers reported.
