Lung Cancer Screening - Decision Aid - Data from the Nelson Trial
Screening for lung cancer in (ex) smokers: yes or no? The Nelson trial in perspective. 
26% reduction in lung cancer mortality means:
 - 7 fewer lung cancer deaths in 1.000 men (31/1.000 > 24/1.000)
 - no effect on overall mortality.
