- Abstract
The article discusses a study in which the risk-based (RB) eligibility and U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) Eligibility Criteria for lung cancer screening were compared using data from the National Health Interview Survey from 2005 to 2015. Results include the decline in screening eligibility for risk-based criteria between 2010 and 2015, and the gap in the screening effectiveness between RB and USPSTF criteria.
