Join us to discuss important changes in the 2021 USPSTF recommendation on lung cancer screening. Given lung cancer’s high prevalence and poor prognosis in later stages, it is important for primary care clinicians to know which patients to screen and what method to use. You’ll also learn the appropriate time to stop screening.
