Schematic representation of modelled NLST-like nodule management protocol. *Growth is calculated as a percentage increase in the diameter vs the diameter at the initial screening. D cut and Growth cut indicate the threshold values of the diameter and percentage increase in the diameter that indicate a cancer positive result. D fup represents low threshold diameter for a follow-up examination
