Title
Risk prediction model base on low-dose computed tomography screening programme in prevention of lung cancer in China and US
Summary
Lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) has been widely implemented in many countries. We thus conducted this multiple center population-based cohort study in the context of the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) and NLST. Lung cancer risk prediction models will be developed base on demographics (age, sex. BMI, smoking, family histology) and LDCT results (lung node size, et. al.). Further, we will compare the model performance between US and China.
Aims

We aim to develop a lung cancer risk prediction model and compare the model performance between US and China.
