Though it is the most preventable of all cancers, lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women. It kills more than 180,000 North Americans each year – more than prostate, colon, and breast cancer combined.

THE LUNG SCAN: THE BEST DEFENCE IS A GOOD OFFENCE

After quitting smoking, early detection may be your best defence against lung cancer. Researchers have recently demonstrated that routine CT screening reveals most lung cancers while they are potentially curable.

The Lung Scan is very accurate in detecting small lung cancers before they become symptomatic or before they become visible on standard chest X-rays. Early detection of lung cancers can mean a longer life and, in many cases, a cure.

IS IT FOR YOU?

If you are or have been a smoker, regular screening is doubly important. Studies suggest individuals with a history of heavy smoking or exposure to second-hand smoke should consider CT screening for lung cancer starting at age 50.
