Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the US. Compared with White patients, Black patients experience higher lung cancer incidence and death rates. New screening recommendations for low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) promote earlier detection of lung cancer in at-risk populations and can potentially help mitigate racial disparities in lung cancer mortality if administered equitably. Yet, little is known about the extent of racial differences in uptake of LDCT. To evaluate potential racial disparities in LDCT screening in a large community-based cancer center in central North Carolina. We conducted a retrospective study of the initial patients undergoing LDCT in a community-based cancer center (n=262). We used the Pearson chi-squared test to assess potential racial disparities in LDCT screening. Study results suggest that Black patients may be less likely than White patients to receive LDCT screening when eligible (χ2=51.41, p<.0001). Collaboration among healthcare providers, researchers, and decision makers is needed to promote LDCT equity.
