90% of lung cancer deaths and 40% of cancer deaths in general are caused by smoking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
EARLY DIAGNOSIS SAVES LIVES<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aretaieion Hospital offers preventive screening for lung cancer to smokers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In lung cancer screening, high-risk individuals are screened with Low Dose CT Chest Scans without contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This method provides detailed images of the lungs while exposing patients to approximately 90% less radiation than conventional chest CT scans. This diagnosis allows us to obtain highly accurate results and high-quality images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Early screening with Low Dose Chest CT is a powerful tool for diagnosing the disease when it is still treatable and often curable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Annual screening with low-dose CT of the high-risk population is recommended, according to the guidelines of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The recommendation applies to people over 50 who are active smokers or have quit smoking for less than 15 years. Their smoking history should be indicative of more than 1 pack per day for 30 years.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
