What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the Pink and Pearl Campaign in promoting lung cancer screening among women aged 50-80 who are undergoing mammography at BJC West County. It utilizes a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data to evaluate the prevalence of lung cancer screening and the impact of the campaign on referrals and completion rates. The study also examines individual and environmental factors that influence screening behavior, grounded in the Integrated Screening Action Model.

Why it matters
