What this trial is about
The purpose of this study is to determine whether reading of low-dose thoracic CT scans can be done by a single general radiologist who has been trained to lung cancer screening, and will evaluate the performance in comparison with double reading by experts. The study will enroll women between 50 and 74 years old, at risk for lung cancer due to their smoking history.
