The Lung Cancer Screening Implementation Guide was a product of collaboration among 25 experts from 16 institutions. But it was also a product of both the successes and failures of lung cancer screening programs before it.

Through detailing past programs and discussing how they've each addressed their own challenges, the American Thoracic Society and the American Lung Association's new lung cancer screening guide can help clinicians design, implement, conduct, and streamline lung cancer screening programs.
