Study: CT Screening Cuts Lung Cancer Deaths


June 29, 2011 -- Screening smokers and former smokers for lung cancer with low-dose CT imaging saves lives, a huge, decade-long study shows, but experts say it is too soon to recommend screening for everyone at risk.

Heavy smokers and former smokers who had the CT imaging were 20% less likely to die of lung cancer than smokers who got traditional chest X-rays.

Results from the National Lung Screening Trial, which included more than 53,000 people, were reported Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine.

The study is the first to show that screening can reduce lung cancer mortality by finding tumors early. But many questions remain, including who should have the test and at what cost to the health care system.

"We now know that it is possible to reduce deaths from lung cancer with low-dose CT, and now we need to figure out what to do with this knowledge," Dartmouth Medical School professor of medicine Harold C. Sox, MD, tells WebMD. "There are about 94 million smokers or former smokers in the United States, and screening even a portion of them would be very expensive."
