Correction to: Community Low-Dose CT Lung Cancer Screening: A Prospective Cohort Study

Vincent K Lam et al. Lung. 2019 Oct.

Abstract

The original version of this article contained an error in the usage of the term "false positive rate". The intention of the authors in those instances was simply to compare the absolute percentage of false positive results in the study vs the NLST, not to make any observations about false positive rate in the strict statistical sense (i.e. Type I error probability).
