WOULD YOU GET A LUNG CANCER
SCREENING IF WE CALLED IT A
LUNG-OGRAM”?
Most women know to get a mammogram but not a lung
screening. Yet lung cancer kills more women than any other
type of cancer. The good news is a lung cancer screening
can help detect it early when there are more treatment
options. Northside Hospital Cancer Institute offers a low dose
CT screening if you’re 55 - 77 years old and a current or previous
smoker. It’s quick and easy and could save your life.
