According to the GLOBOCAN 2018 estimates of cancer incidence, mortality, and prevalence, Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer (11.6% of the total cases) and the leading cause of cancer death (18.4% of the total cancer deaths).^[2]

Recommendations for lung cancer screening:^[3]


Recommended test	Low-dose chest CT
Recommended Interval	Annual screening (every year)
Age for screening	55-80
