Lung cancer screening
Our lung cancer screening program aims to detect lung cancer at its earliest, most treatable stages. We use low-dose CT scans, which are quick, painless and use minimal radiation. The screening is recommended for individuals aged 50-80 who have a significant smoking history (20 pack-years or more) and currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years. Our program includes:
- Comprehensive risk assessment
- Low-dose CT scan
- Follow-up care and guidance
- Smoking cessation support
