The report titled `Challenges in the care pathway and preferences of people with lung cancer in Europe´, has explored the experiences and recommendations of people diagnosed with lung cancer from disease presentation to diagnosis, to treatment and follow-up. Data was collected through a self-filled online survey, completed by 991 people diagnosed with lung cancer in the WHO European Region.

The aim of this report is to identify barriers and areas of improvement to enhance the lung cancer care pathway. Even with differences in the structure and delivery of care across Europe, the findings of this report stress the need for person-centred models that develops and improves partnerships between individuals and their healthcare providers. It also highlights the continual need for improvement in both the access and delivery of care for people impacted by lung cancer.
