New Town Medical Early Lung Cancer Screening Programme (Include Low Dose CT)

New Town Medical Early Lung Cancer Screening Programme (Included Low Dose CT)

Low-dose CT throax is a safer new technology. Compared with traditional skill, it can greatly reduce the radiation dose, and can detect the initial and smaller tumors, which can help patients to get early treatment. Regular physical examinations can identify potential risks of disease and pre-existing conditions. 

• The most advanced surgical procedures are generally only suitable for patients with early stage lung cancer.The development of low dose chest computed tomographic (LDCT) imaging has resulted in a resurgence of interest in screening for lung cancer.
• LDCT can be used for health screening,this suggests that LDCT may be a more sensitive screening tool for small tumours.It is useful in detecting asymptomatic lung cancer in a high risk population in an urban setting.
• Lung cancer in early stage which is before spreading to other areas of the body,that is more often successfully treated.
• Unfortunately, when lung cancer is diagnosed, occasionally the disease has already spread outside the lung.
