Lung Cancer Early Detection

Early results of a large study on a new way to screen for lung cancer in smokers and former smokers showed that low-dose helical CT scans (often called spiral CT scans) reduced the rate of death from lung cancer. If you’re a smoker or a former smoker, talk with your health care professional to see if screening is a good choice for you.

Spiral CT scans can reduce the number of people who die of lung cancer by 20%.
