Title
Mortality prediction using a combination of quantitive CT image measures

Summary
This project will use NLST scans and patient information to develop mortality prediction models in a lung cancer screening setting. Quantitative measures of diseases such as COPD and CVD will be extracted from the CT images to include in the models. This project may be considered a follow-up of project ID NLST-267, which resulted in a Thorax publication: https://biometry.nci.nih.gov/cdas/publications/710/

Aims

- To create an improved mortality prediction tool for a lung screening setting.
- To validate the predictive value of quantitative measures of chest CT images.
- To improve the understanding of the link between COPD, CVD, and lung cancer.
