Research summary
This study will use the Teenage and Young Adult Cancer Survivor Study (TYACSS) to identify 1000 survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma, aged 18-80 who have never been diagnosed with lung cancer. Survivors GPs will be contacted to confirm whether they are eligible to be contacted with a request that they complete a questionnaire seeking their views on the possibility of them being offered lung cancer screening. The GP will be requested to forward on a questionnaire pack to eligible survivors who are then free to choose whether to participate or not. The global objective is to contact a group of survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma via their GP to ask if they would complete a questionnaire seeking their views on the possibility of them being offered lung cancer screening.
