Video Summary
The symposium discussed Canada's programmatic lung cancer screening efforts, highlighting the establishment and expansion of screening programs across provinces. As of now, four provinces have implemented screening with common eligibility criteria using the PLCO risk prediction model. The Canadian Partnership Against Cancer supports these efforts through national quality indicators and knowledge sharing. Programs in British Columbia and Ontario have shown impressive screening uptake and high cancer detection rates, with significant participation from indigenous and lower socioeconomic groups. Continuous quality assurance and training are vital for maintaining and improving the program's performance and outcomes.
