Mobile Lung Cancer Screening Project
We want your input! We're gathering insights to understand if, and how, a mobile lung cancer screening unit may resolve inequities in the lung cancer screening space and improve early detection rates for specific populations and communities in Ontario. Your inputs are greatly appreciated - whether you're an individual with lived experience with lung cancer, a healthcare provider, or a researcher.
The survey takes about 8 minutes to complete.
*This survey was built in collaboration with Healthcare Together LTD and Dr. Geoffrey Liu of University Health Network.
