Use of chest CT scans from WTC Health Plan participants
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study creates a research archive of chest CT scan images from people enrolled in the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Plan program at Mount Sinai. It may help doctors and researchers better understand and track chest health over time using existing scan images.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a participant in the WTC Health Plan program at Mount Sinai (the clinical center for NY/NJ).
- You must be part of the screening/monitoring (SMP) or treatment program (TP) side.
- This study uses existing CT scan images rather than enrolling new medical treatment, so you need to have scans through that program.
- You must not be in a special excluded group (pregnant, children, fetuses, newborns, prisoners, or people living in institutions).

This study looks at how people at high risk for lung cancer use low-dose CT scans in real life, and what outcomes happen over time. It may help confirm which groups benefit most from regular screening and support safer screening decisions.
This study tests whether people at higher risk for lung cancer can be safely screened using regular chest CT scans. You might benefit from closer monitoring, and the study helps doctors learn the best way to catch lung cancer earlier.
This study looks at how CT scans of lung cancer can be linked to the tumor's biology and genetics. It aims to understand lung cancer better by combining imaging with lab results.
This trial tests how well a CT scan and lung function tests can measure interstitial lung disease (ILD), which is long-term scarring or inflammation in the lungs. It may help doctors use these images and tests more accurately to track ILD.
This study looks at how breathing problems and blood vessel/heart issues may happen after World Trade Center (WTC) dust exposure. It uses blood samples and breathing tests to understand who may be affected and to compare people with and without WTC-related airway reactivity.
This study looks at blood “biomarkers” and breathing/acid-reflux measurements in FDNY workers exposed to the 9/11 site to understand airway disease, Barrett’s esophagus, and reflux. It may help identify which people have hidden (underdiagnosed) reflux or lung involvement after 9/11.
