Lung cancer screening with low dose computed tomography (LDCT); exploring opportunities to optimise disease prevention across a range of health outcomes in Australia.

肺癌是世界上癌症相关死亡的最大原因。低剂量计算机断层扫描（LDCT）是一种通过检测早期疾病来减少肺癌死亡的扫描。澳大利亚正在与LDCT一起研究一项国家筛查计划。该项目评估了这样一个项目提供的机会，以开发一种个性化的方法，使用LDCT提供的信息进行筛查，除了癌症（例如心脏和骨骼疾病）和修改风险因素（例如体力活动和吸烟）。

Lung cancer is the largest cause of cancer related death in the world. Low dose computed tomography (LDCT) is a scan that reduces deaths from lung cancer by detecting early disease. Australia is investigating a national screening program with LDCT. This project evaluates opportunity provided by such a program to develop a personalised approach to screening using information provided by LDCT beyond cancer (e.g. heart and bone disease) and modify risk factors (e.g. physical activity and smoking).
