National Lung Cancer Screening Day (Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute)
A lung cancer screening could save your life.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Regular screenings can help detect it early when it’s more likely to be treatable and curable. That’s why, on Saturday, November 9, Parkview is offering LungSmart screenings. This simple, non-invasive CT scan takes less than 15 minutes and is used to detect lung cancers at an early stage. These tests will be offered at two convenient locations – making it easier to get the life saving care you need.
Who is eligible:
- Adults 50 – 77 years old
- Current smokers or those who quit in the last 15 years
