The Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) Radiology Assessment is a case-based self-assessment designed to help radiologists enhance their proficiency in interpreting low-dose CT (LDCT) scans for lung cancer screening. The assessment is based primarily on the American College of Radiology (ACR) Lung-RADS® guidelines, providing participants with opportunities to apply standardized reporting and management recommendations in real-world screening scenarios.

Through multiple-choice questions featuring imaging cases, participants will recognize common and complex pulmonary nodule presentations, strengthen diagnostic decision-making skills, and reinforce guideline-based management strategies. Immediate feedback, answer rationales, and links to I-ELCAP Teaching Files provide targeted learning opportunities to address individual knowledge gaps and support continued professional development in lung cancer screening radiology. The assessment is intended primarily for early- and mid-career radiologists and clinicians seeking foundational to intermediate-level competency, while also serving as a valuable refresher for experienced practitioners. 

The assessment was developed in collaboration with the International Early Lung Cancer Action Program (I-ELCAP).
Enduring Activity Launch Date: June 1, 2026
Enduring Activit Expiration Date: May 31, 2028
This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of radiologists and other healthcare professionals involved in the interpretation and management of low-dose CT (LDCT) lung cancer screening examinations. 
Upon completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to: 
  • Interpret low-dose CT (LDCT) scans using Lung-RADS®  guidelines and other evidence-based lung cancer screening reporting frameworks. 
  • Identify and classify common and unique pulmonary nodule presentations, differentiating benign from potentially malignant findings in lung cancer screening CT examinations. 
  • Apply Lung-RADS® categories and recommendations to determine appropriate patient management and follow-up strategies.
  • Utilize supplemental educational resources, including I-ELCAP Teaching Files, to address personal knowledge gaps and support continuous improvement in thoracic radiology practice.
