Lung cancer CT screening might also have psychosocial consequences for participants receiving false-positive results. • Method • DLCST was a randomised controlled lung cancer CT-screening trial offering the CT group five annual CT scans. • The questionnaire, consequences of screening –lung cancer, (COS-LC), was developed and validated to measure psychosocial consequences of participants in lung cancer CT-screening. • Participants receiving abnormal results were included and each participant was matched with participants receiving normal CT-screening results and participants from the control group. • The questionnaire COS-LC was completed at 5 time points: baseline, 1 week,1, 6 and 18 months after screening. Study design: The distribution of CT-screening results and the final diagnosis among the matched participants and the questionnaire response rate at 5 time points: baseline, 1 week, 1, 6, and 18 months after screening. Figure 1: The mean score of each of the 9 psychosocial outcomes of the questionnaire COS-LC part I (relevant for all screening trial participants) at 5 time points: baseline, 1 week, 1, 6 and 18 months after screening. • Results • Participants receiving false-positive results experience both short term and long term psychosocial consequences (figure 1 and 2).
