Title
Lung cancer CT screening efficacy beyond the NLST screening period

Summary
The NLST recently published their extended follow-up lung cancer incidence and mortality outcomes. We plan on performing additional analysis of this extended follow-up data to show the outcomes between the CT and x-ray cohorts when excluding the first four or five years after the baseline scan, i.e., by excluding all events that occured before the fourth or fifth year of follow-up.

Aims

- To perform survival analysis comparing the CT and x-ray cohorts beyond four or five years after the baseline screening round.
- To assess the distribution of lung cancer staging at diagnosis beyond four or five years after the baseline screening round.
