In this issue of Thoracic Surgery Clinics, guest editors Drs. DuyKhanh P. Ceppa and Kei Suzuki bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Access to Lung Screening. Lung cancer screening rates remain significantly lower compared to other well established cancer screening rates, and remain at a low 5.8% of the eligible population. In this issue, top experts discuss pertinent topics such as a review of the data supporting screening for lung cancer, building a screening program, increasing screening rates in eligible populations, and how to better target the high-risk population.
