This prospective pilot feasibility study will offer low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening to approximately 500 high-risk individuals aged 50-80 years across Kuwait. The primary objective is to assess the uptake of, and barriers to, LDCT lung cancer screening in Kuwait and to establish a framework for a national screening program. Participants undergo eligibility assessment (smoking history of at least 20 pack-years, totalled across all tobacco products using pre-specified equivalency conversions for shisha\u002Fwaterpipe, cigar, pipe, and roll-your-own tobacco), baseline assessment, LDCT screening with Lung-RADS-based management, a second screening round at 12 months, and follow-up. LDCT images are read by radiologists and in parallel by artificial intelligence (AI) software to evaluate AI-assisted reading. Findings will inform national lung cancer screening guidelines for Kuwait.",[73,74],"Lung Cancer","Lung Neoplasms",[76,77,78,79,80,34,81],"lung cancer screening","low-dose computed tomography","Lung-RADS","artificial intelligence","shisha waterpipe smoking","pilot feasibility study","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-08-14",{"date":85,"type":86},"2026-08-17","ACTUAL",{"date":88,"type":67},"2026-09-01",{"date":90,"type":67},"2029-08-31",{"name":44,"class":6},1]
