Abstract

Targeted screening could hugely improve the chances for lung cancers to be picked up early enough to be cured. Yet lung cancer screening remains a low priority in Europe. Janet Fricker looks at the evidence supporting screening, and at the questions regions and countries need to address to develop screening programmes that work for their populations and health systems.
