Abstract

IntroductionLung cancer screening (LCS) using low-dose CT has been demonstrated to reduce lung cancer-related mortality in large randomised controlled trials. Moving from trials to practice requires answering practical questions about the level of expertise of CT readers, the need for double reading as in trials and the potential role of artificial intelligence (AI). In addition, most LCS studies have predominantly included male participants with women being under-represented, even though the benefit of screening is greater for them. Thus, this study aims to compare the performance of a single CT reading by general radiologists trained in LCS using AI as a second reader to that of a double reading by expert thoracic radiologists, in a campaign for low-dose CT screening in high-risk women.Methods and analysisThis observational cohort study will recruit 2400 asymptomatic women aged between 50 and 74 years, current or former smokers with at least a 20 pack-year smoking history, in 4 different French district areas. Assistance with smoking cessation will be offered to current smokers. An initial low-dose CT scan will be performed, with subsequent follow-ups at 1 year and 2 years. The primary objective is to compare CT scan readings by a single LCS-trained, AI-assisted radiologist to that of an expert double reading. The secondary objectives are: to evaluate the performance of AI as a stand-alone reader; the adherence to screening of female participants; the influence on smoking cessation; the psychological consequences of screening; the detection of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), coronary artery disease and osteoporosis on low-dose CT scans and the costs incurred by screening.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval was obtained from the Comité de Protection des Personnes Sud-Est 1 (ethics approval number: 2021-A02265-36 with an amendment on 15 July 2022). Trial results will be disseminated at conferences, through relevant patient groups and published in peer-reviewed journals.Trial registration numberNCT05195385.
