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.",[29,30],"Lung Cancer","Lung Neoplasms",[32,33,34,35,36,37,38],"lung cancer screening","low-dose computed tomography","Lung-RADS","artificial intelligence","shisha waterpipe smoking","Kuwait","pilot feasibility study","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-08-14",{"date":42,"type":43},"2026-08-17","ACTUAL",{"date":45,"type":23},"2026-09-01",{"date":47,"type":23},"2029-08-31",{"name":49,"class":50},"Sulaiman Khadadah","OTHER_GOV",""]
