there was a landmark study called the national lung screening trial — that um proved that if you take the natural they took patients that randomized them either to get a low dose ct scan which is now a more high resolution way of looking at the lungs that can see smaller nodules versus getting a chest x-ray which was this technique that previously already we had kind of known that wasn't didn't work and if you do that the patients who get the low dose ct scan the high resolution imaging in that in that group there were significant lower uh rates of um lung cancer deaths i mean a relative risk reduction of about 20 percent
