Low dose ct lung scan
A recent clinical study by the National Cancer Institute has shown that early use of low dose spiral CT scans for 50-75 year old 30 pack year smokers (1 pack a day for 30 years or 2 packs a day for 15 years or 3 packs a day for 10 years) dramatically reduced the death rate by 20% vs. patients who only received Chest X-Rays. With this in mind Associated Radiologists offers the following program for this high risk group.
CT Lung Screening is a low radiation dose, contrast free scan which allows the radiologist to see the location, nature, and extent of many different diseases or abnormalities within your lungs.
A reasonable cash pay price will be charged for patients without insurance coverage.
