| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T1. Detection rates varied between 0.8% and 1.1% across screenings (0.9% overall), and the positive predictive value (chances of a suspicious nodule being cancer) of screening was 41% #lcsm |

| Danielle Pardue @Actorielle RT @BrendonStilesMD: Here is what it looked like. #lcsm https://t.co/NDLhnusMgG |
| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T1 with a 2nd trial the naysayers will have less basis to say screening doesn't work #lcsm |
| @DavidCookeMD A1 NELSON Trial Importance. Large, expensive randomized clinical trial shows benefit of #Lungcancerscreening. 2nd such trial. Can we all agree now? Also benefit to women. #LCSM | |

| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T1 some insist stage shift and survival time are not good surrogates for mortality; well the mortality benefit is now conclusive #lcsm |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T1. These results were even more favorable than those reported in the NLST. #lcsm |

| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD @DavidCookeMD Perhaps different biology. Slower growing cancers? #lcsm |
| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T1 many felt NELSON would be neutral due to delay in reporting results and dilution, so the 25% mortality benefit even more impressive #lcsm |
| @LungRoadAhead T1 Confirms real life. And my primary care, when we find nodules incidentally, it’s usually early and the patients do better #lcsm | |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T1. It is important to recognize that NELSON and NLST are probably the LOWEST benefit of what can be achieved with CT screening. #lcsm |

| Vamsi Velcheti, MD MBA FASCO @VamsiVelcheti @BrendonStilesMD T1- Bottomline message from NELSON- IMO the magnitude of benefit with LDCT is comparable to other screening programs like breast/colon and should be widely implemented- #LCSM Lung cancer screening saves lives |

| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD @VamsiVelcheti Arguably, lung cancer screening mortality data is STRONGER. #lcsm |
| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T1 yes the benefit in NLST and NELSON are probably the low end, with screening for 20plus years mortality benefit >50% #lcsm |

| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD @WhitneyZahnd Important topic for lung cancer screening. thanks for joining. #lcsm |
| @LungRoadAhead T1 would be interesting to see if in 20 years time mortality for sexes is more well matched with more females in the workplace #lcsm | |
| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T1 Best of all, Europe and Japan and many others will now start screening their high risk population #lcsm |

| #LCSM Chat @lcsmchat RT @BrendonStilesMD: T2. Who should be screened for lung cancer and how can a patient find a screening center? #lcsm |
| Danielle Pardue @Actorielle RT @BrendonStilesMD: T2. Who should be screened for lung cancer and how can a patient find a screening center? #lcsm |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T2. Lung cancer screening criteria are stricter than most. #lcsm https://t.co/qeANiouHmt |
| #LCSM Chat @lcsmchat RT @BrendonStilesMD: T2. Lung cancer screening criteria are stricter than most. #lcsm https://t.co/qeANiouHmt |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T2. Screening is approved for those aged 55-74 with a 30-pack year smoking history (1ppd for 30 years, 2 ppd for 15 years, etc), and who currently smoke or who have quite within 15 years. #lcsm |
| @LungRoadAhead T2 nelson says smokers. I say add family hist, radon exposure, occupational carcinogens, #lcsm | |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T2. Important to recognize that these criteria miss a lot of patients. #lcsm |
 | LiveLung @LiveLung1 Tuning in to hear the latest compelling research about #screening #lcsm |
| Lung Cancer Sux @LungCancerSux RT @BrendonStilesMD: T2. Lung cancer screening criteria are stricter than most. #lcsm https://t.co/qeANiouHmt |
| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T2. But important to remember that getting a CT scan on a patient with symptoms isn’t “screening”. However, recognition of signs/symptoms of lung cancer in ANYONE just as important. #lcsm |

| Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD T2. But before expanding screening criteria (family history, other exposures, genetic markers) we need to first show we can enroll currently eligible patients. #lcsm |
| @LungRoadAhead T2 Finding a screening center the patient can afford to travel to is the issue. 20 mile drive is not affordable for a lot of pts #lcsm | |

| #LCSM Chat @lcsmchat RT @BrendonStilesMD: T2. Look for centers accredited by the ACR. #lcsm |
| @DavidCookeMD Correct. < 5% of those who are eligible are screened. https://t.co/UIEObTgYrz #LCSM | |
| #LCSM Chat @lcsmchat RT @findlungcancer: T2 Also consider using risk prediction models for selection e.g. PLCO2012 #lcsm |
| Andrea Borondy Kitts @findlungcancer T2 current screening criteria results in less AA eligible for screening due to smoking history, age; risk models do better #lcsm |
| Danielle Pardue @Actorielle @LungRoadAhead I wish I could put this on t-shirts, billboards, etc. My own PCP's PA told me I was "not at risk" for LC b/c of my age. It is all over my family hx. #lcsm |
