Get a Lung Screening
Understanding the health of your lungs is important and can put you at ease. That’s why we provide innovative, non-invasive lung screenings (known as low-dose CT chest scans) for people who may be at risk for lung cancer.
You may qualify for a lung screening if you meet the following criteria:
- Current smoker or former smoker who has quit in the last 15 years
- Between the ages of 50 and 80
- A smoking history of at least 20 pack years (pack years are the number of packs per day times the number of years smoked)
If all three of the above apply to you, it’s time to talk to your doctor about getting screened.
Early Detection is Key
Like most cancers, treatment for lung cancer is typically most successful when it is discovered in its earlier stages. When diagnosed at the earliest stage, the average five-year survival rate is 92%.
Schedule your screening today or message your provider through MyChart to request a referral. An appointment may be needed to discuss your concerns.
This painless scan is covered by most insurance plans for those eligible. To learn more or to schedule a lung screening, call 973-447-9630.
