                      Lung Cancer Screening


                      Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, according to the American Cancer Society. Unfortunately, lung cancer is most often discovered at a late stage. When lung cancer is found at an early stage, there is a greater chance for a cure, making screening and early detection critical. Recent scientific studies have determined that lung cancer deaths can be reduced by as much as 20 percent when low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scans are used as a screening tool.

                      If you meet the following screening guidelines, you may be eligible for a screening exam. CT scans may help detect lung cancer in its earliest stages, when it is most treatable. Please call your primary care physician to discuss this option.

                      Criteria for Low-Dose CT Scan

                      Low dose CT (LDCT) lung screening exams are now covered by Medicare and private insurance if the patient meets the following criteria*:

                      • 55-77 years of age
                      • Asymptomatic (has no signs or symptoms of lung cancer)
                      • Has a tobacco smoking history. Discuss this with your physician.
                      • Is a current smoker or one who has quit smoking within the last 15 years

                      Results

                      Participants in the low-dose lung cancer screening program are monitored by a CT registered radiologic technologist, who works with your primary care provider or lung care provider to follow up as needed.

                      Schedule Your Screening

                      For more information, consult with your primary care or lung care provider. If you meet the criteria for the low-dose CT scan, you will need an order from your primary care or lung care provider prior to scheduling your screening.

                      *This information is based on guidelines approved by the United States Preventive Services Task Force.

                      If these guidelines apply to you, you should have a conversation with your doctor or healthcare provider about lung cancer CT screening.

                      If these guidelines do not apply to you, but you are still concerned about your risk for lung cancer, we encourage you to talk with your healthcare provider.
