Population impact of lung cancer screening in the United States: Projections from a microsimulation model.
BACKGROUND:Previous simulation studies estimating the impacts of lung cancer screening have ignored the changes in smoking prevalence over time in the United States. Our primary rationale was to perform, to our knowledge, the first simulation study that estimates the health outcomes of lung cancer s...
