In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Investigators aim to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Nu.Q blood test for lung cancer in the Taiwanese population and compare its diagnostic performance with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) or computed tomography (CT). Additionally, investigators will investigate the potential role of Nu.Q in lung cancer prevention and its impact on survival outcomes. Study Method: Investigators plan to collect 20 mL of blood samples from individuals undergoing chest LDCT/CT, isolate plasma for Nu.Qโ„ข analysis, and compare the results with corresponding lung cancer pathology findings. The estimated sample size is 500 participants.
