Maybe you smoked and quit. Maybe you still smoke. Maybe you NEVER smoked. Fact is, environmental exposures (such as radon) may contribute to lung cancer as well. Franciscan Healthcare offers a non-invasive and painless screening that can detect lung cancer even before you have symptoms. What is it? It’s called a low-dose CT scan.
Did you know…
- Lung cancer doesn’t always cause symptoms until the cancer has spread.
- You’re at higher risk if you have a history of smoking.
- Longer smoking history means a higher chance of needing a screening.
- Low-dose CT scans are covered by insurance and Medicare if you fit the screening criteria.
- Screening puts your mind at ease.
