National Lung Cancer Audit (NLCA): State of the nation report 2023
The National Lung Cancer Audit (NLCA) has published a State of the Nation Report 2023. Based on patients diagnosed with lung cancer in England during 2021, and in Wales in 2020-2021, it summarises the performance of lung cancer services on a set of performance indicators and patient outcomes.
The report found that the number of patients diagnosed in England in 2021 has recovered to pre- pandemic levels, with 34,478 patients diagnosed with lung cancer (compared to 31,371 in 2020 and 33,091 in 2019). It also found that the Covid-19 pandemic had an impact on the number of patients diagnosed in Wales, which fell from 2,240 in 2019 to 2,067 in 2020 (with a subsequent recovery in 2021 to 2,244).
The reports are available to view and download, along with all other reports, on our dedicated reports webpage.
