Impact of Low-Dose Computed Tomography Findings on Cigarette Smoking Cessation Among High-Risk Adults Participating in Lung Cancer Screening

This study reports high odds of self-reported complete smoking cessation in adults who currently smoked after receiving their LDCT findings. Though the impact of specific types of LDCT findings on smoking cessation was positive for high lung cancer risk individuals, reception of incidental findings could potentially be perceived as less severe to encourage individuals who currently smoked to quit. Clearly communicating the severity of LDCT findings along with the delivery of behavioral smoking cessation support targeted to high-risk individuals may increase their chances of complete smoking cessation and reduce lung cancer mortality.

Abstract

This study reports high odds of self-reported complete smoking cessation in adults who currently smoked after receiving their LDCT findings. Though the impact of specific types of LDCT findings on smoking cessation was positive for high lung cancer risk individuals, reception of incidental findings could potentially be perceived as less severe to encourage individuals who currently smoked to quit. Clearly communicating the severity of LDCT findings along with the delivery of behavioral smoking cessation support targeted to high-risk individuals may increase their chances of complete smoking cessation and reduce lung cancer mortality.
