Abstract

Annually, thousands of patients are told they have a pulmonary nodule within the context of lung cancer screening or as an incidental finding. Many nodules are discovered during lung cancer screening with LDCT and benign, posing a low risk of cancer. Despite the low risk of malignancy, lung nodules are a common cause of emotional distress among patients. To improve patient’s understanding, decrease distress for a lung nodule finding and engage patients in recommended follow up lung screening, Pocket Nodules is designed to enhance the discussion of pulmonary nodules during the Lung Cancer Screening Shared Decision Making consult.
