note = "Funding Information: In December 1998, the International Congress on Prevention and Early Diagnosis of Lung Cancer, sponsored by the American Cancer Society (ACS), the Union International Contre Le Cancer (UICC), the Alliance for Lung Cancer Advocacy, Support and Education (ALCASE) and other international organizations re-examined the recommendations against screening for lung cancer. The experts concluded that the information leading to these recommendations based on previous screening trials conducted more than two decades ago had a number of limitations and thus comprised an imperfect basis for current health policy. In light of emerging information and the enormous importance of the lung cancer problem, that conference recommended urgent reconsideration of issues surrounding early detection of lung cancer.",
