Survey on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in lung cancer screening

We are looking for nurses working in primary health care, respiratory, or oncology in Aotearoa New Zealand to take part in a short (15 min) survey of their views on the use of AI in lung cancer screening.

AI will inevitably be part of a national lung cancer screening programme, however for implementation to be successful, its use has to be acceptable to both recipients and those delivering the screening. Please visit https://redcap.otago.ac.nz/surveys/?s=TDCLMDACMEC7H9KH to give your views and help us plan for lung cancer screening in Aotearoa New Zealand.

This research is funded by the Health Research Council of New Zealand (HRC), with research team members based at the University of Otago/Ōtakou Whakaihu Waka and Health NZ/Te Whatu Ora.

This study has been approved by the University of Otago Human Ethics Committee (Health) - Te Pae Matatika Tangata (Hauora), Otakou Whakaihu Waka (Ref H25/0473).
