Distribution of gastrointestinal cancer mortality in 189 participants. This chart illustrates the distribution of GI cancer mortality in participants of a lung cancer screening program, highlighting the relative impact of each type on overall cancer-related deaths. Pancreatic cancer is the most frequent cause of GI cancer deaths and lacks a screening strategy. These data underscore the unmet need and the importance of maximizing participation in a lung cancer screening program to conduct a comprehensive health check.
