Extended Data Fig. 9

We require a minimum of 1 year of follow-up for cancer-negative cases. This resulted in a median follow-up time of 625 d across all patients once all exclusion criteria were taken into account. To clarify, this means that the median amount of time from the first screening CT to either a cancer diagnosis or the last follow-up event was 625 d. There were 209 patients (232 cases) with priors in this set of 1,139.
