Lung Cancer Screening Improving and Automating Program Management

Building a targeted program for LDCT lung cancer screening (LCS) requires excellent communication and meticulous attention to follow-up that can be difficult to achieve without seamless integration into the overarching department systems and workflow. Beyond the many mandated steps included in every patient screening, there is also the potential for detection of significant incidental findings. Therefore, it is especially crucial that the reporting and management of incidental findings be well integrated into the department’s standard reporting and follow-up systems.
