A low-dose CT scan can identify 70% of lung cancers early, reducing mortality by 20%. Co-designed with communities, healthcare experts, and NACCHO, this equity-focused program prioritises accessibility, cultural safety, and person-centred care, particularly for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
Launching in July 2025, this initiative aims to prevent over 500 deaths annually, supported by the National Cancer Screening Register. The program aligns with global efforts to screen high-risk individuals and improve outcomes.
The National Lung Cancer Screening Program Webinar and Workshop Series are designed to cover key topics and support readiness for the program rollout.
Workshops will be rolled out on a national level and are listed below. These workshops will involve workstation-based learning, using curated CT case studies and images to learn practical application of the Nodule Management Protocol to real-life cases.
