Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The USPSTF recommendation to offer annual lung cancer screening to eligible high risk patients, raised concerns that low-resource settings may face significant barriers to implementing screening potentially leading to disparities in delivering this preventive service. Awareness of and referral to dedicated lung cancer screening programs is limited, suggesting access to high-quality screening services may be a concern for this population.
