Javier Zulueta, MD, Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital, New York, NY, discusses the implementation of an incidental lung nodule (ILN) program to improve follow-up rates and early detection of lung cancer. Using natural language processing to identify nodules in radiological reports, the program tracked patients with and without established follow-up pathways. Program engagement significantly improved follow-up compliance, leading to increased early-stage lung cancer diagnoses. This interview took place at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, CA.
