Lung cancer screening is a test to detect the presence of lung cancer. The test uses low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) i.e. a CT scan, to find nodules in the lungs.

You may qualify for screening if you:

• are between 50 and 80 years old
• if you are a current smoker or quit within the last 15 years
• have smoked 20 pack-years or more.
