Table 3 Baseline and last available LDCT screening findings of participants who died of pancreatic cancer within 24 months of their last LDCT screening: original reports versus re-review. The original reports did not document any pancreatic findings, whereas the re-review by experienced radiologists identified undocumented pancreatic findings in 42% of last available LDCT scans and 29% of baseline LDCT scans. This comparison highlights the importance of thoroughly examining the pancreas, even if it is not the primary focus of lung cancer screening.
