Navigating the Complexity of Lung Cancer Surveillance Practices: Qualitative Pilot Study on Provider Perspectives

This qualitative analysis highlights the complexity of lung cancer surveillance decision-making and provider concerns about tool accuracy and delivery. While risk stratification tools may support surveillance decisions, their further development must address data quality, accuracy across diverse clinical and nonclinical risk factors, and effective patient-level data delivery. Doing so will facilitate the practical implementation of risk stratification tools to improve surveillance of SPLC and recurrence.
