Friday, October 21, 2004 to Sunday, October 23, 2005
Conference Mission
The broadest mission of these Conferences is the collective pursuit of avant-garde understanding of the issues surrounding screening for lung cancer, the broadest subissues being early diagnosis and early intervention. Any given Conference focuses on issues that are particularly topical at the time as well as providing an update of research on and practice of screening for lung cancer and related topics. The first 12 Conferences have focused on the research topics involved in early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. The cumulative evidence resulting from the I-ELCAP collaboration were presented at the 12th Conference. Starting with the 13th Conference, the focus is on guidelines for the practice of screening and the needed updating in light of advances in science and technology.
At this Conference we will focus on the dialogue between a potential screenee and the physician prior to the decision on whether to undergo CT screening for lung cancer. This presentation will focus on the information that should be provided by the physician in light of the accumulating evidence from the I-ELCAP collaboration. As always, we will also present scientific and technologic advances and their potential for incorporation into a continually updated I-ELCAP screening program.
