Hundreds of millions of CT scans are done each year for other reasons. Software could check each one for early lung, kidney, liver and pancreas changes, but only if a follow-up system exists.
Opportunistic screening algorithms exist for lung nodules, renal masses, liver lesions, and body composition. Propose a module running on all adult CTs with structured incidental-finding output, an automated tracking system to ensure follow-up, and a registry recording downstream procedures and cancers found so harm can be measured.
