MA05.05 Low-Dose Chest Computed Tomographic Screening and Invasive Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules for Lung Cancer in Never-Smokers

Although lung cancer screening using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) is now widely used in clinical practice, the characteristics and outcomes of diagnostic procedures related to screen-detected nodules in never-smokers remain unclear. We aimed to determine the incidence of nodules considered for invasive biopsy and evaluate the final diagnoses and procedure-related complications in never-smokers in comparison to ever-smokers who underwent LDCT screening.
