肺癌篩檢（Lung cancer screening, LCS）正逐漸演變為不僅僅是一種早期檢測工具。
Lung cancer screening (LCS) is becoming more than just an early detection tool.
公共衛生專家正越來越多地將戒菸支援直接整合到這些計畫中，將篩檢預約轉變為強大的「教育時機」。
Public health experts are increasingly integrating smoking cessation support directly into these programs, turning screening appointments into powerful 'teachable moments.'
前來進行掃描的患者通常有強烈的改善健康動機，這使得現在成為解決尼古丁依賴的理想時機。
Patients visiting for a scan are often highly motivated to improve their health, making it an ideal time to address nicotine dependence.
研究表明，將篩檢與個人化、密集的戒菸諮詢相結合，可使死亡率比單獨篩檢額外降低14%。
Research shows that combining screening with personalized, intensive cessation counseling can reduce mortality by up to 14% more than screening alone.
有效的策略包括「預設轉介」系統，以及結合行為諮詢與藥物治療的多模態方法。
Effective strategies include opt-out referral systems, which automatically connect patients to support services, and multimodal approaches that pair behavioral counseling with pharmacotherapy.
利用視覺證據，例如分享患者自己的掃描影像，也能提高動機。
Using visual evidence, such as sharing a patient's own scan images, can also boost motivation.
許多診所受限於資源，缺乏標準化流程，且難以接觸到醫療資源不足的高風險族群。
Many clinics struggle with resource constraints, lack standardized protocols, and struggle to reach underserved, high-risk populations.
最終目標是將肺癌篩檢從單一的測試，轉變為全面性、長期預防保健的門戶，幫助患者過上更健康、無菸的生活。
Ultimately, the goal is to transform lung cancer screening from a standalone test into a gateway for comprehensive, long-term preventive care, helping patients live healthier, smoke-free lives.
