Columbus Community Hospital offers low-dose CT lung screenings to help detect lung cancer in its early stages for individuals at risk. These screenings use minimal radiation to provide a detailed image of the lungs and are available to patients aged 50-80 who have a history of heavy smoking or have quit within the past 15 years. The screenings are quick, taking only about five minutes, and can have a significant impact on a person’s health by detecting cancer early when it’s most treatable. For more information, patients should consult their physician or contact CCH’s diagnostic imaging department.
