This study is a prospective trial of 200 individuals at high risk for lung cancer who are not eligible for lung cancer screening under current screening guidelines. Potential subject's 6 yr lung cancer risk must exceed 1.5% by the Tammamagi PLCO2012m calculator. Patients will undergo a non contrast CT chest for lung cancer screening. This cutoff should encompass in excess of 80% of all lung cancer cases (10). However, in patients 78-82 years old we will set the 6 yr lung cancer risk threshold at 4.0% as these patients will typically have other competing risks of death and this may potentially limit screening benefit in these older individuals.
