Jan Eberth leads study assessing geographic availability of low-dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening
A team of researchers led by epidemiology and biostatistics associate professor Jan Eberth has completed a study, published in Preventing Chronic Diseases, that assessed the availability of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for lung cancer screenings in the United States. In conjunction, they examined lung cancer mortality rates across geographic regions as well as the spatial proximity of high-risk populations to screening centers.
