Lung Cancer Screening Resources

Data show that screening for lung cancer with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can lower the risk of dying from lung cancer in people who are at high risk. Other screening tests, such as chest X-rays and sputum cytology, have not been found to be as effective and are not recommended for lung cancer screening.

You may have many questions about lung cancer screening. These resources can help you learn more about your risk factors, the screening process, and decide if screening is the right choice for you.
