State-of-the-art screening for lung cancer: (part 2): CT scanning

There have been dramatic improvements in technology in the past decade. In conjunction there have also been advances in our clinical knowledge that have led to changes in the screening regimen. These changes are expected to continue in the future as CT scanners continue to improve and knowledge about screening accumulates, and computer-assisted techniques are expected to play an ever more important role. This dynamic process will lead to continued improvements in the diagnostic distribution of lung cancers detected under CT screening.
