Your screening plan

Item

Talk to your doctor about screening

Your doctor will review your medical history, symptoms, and risk factors, and may do a physical exam before they give you a referral.

Item

Schedule a low-dose CT scan

Schedule your scan. Your doctor might give you a referral for a low-dose CT (LDCT) scan. LDCT does expose you to a small amount of radiation, although it is less than that from a standard CT scan.

Item

Prepare for your scan

CT scans are usually done on an outpatient basis. Ask your doctor if contrast dye will be used and let them know about any past reactions or implanted medical devices.

Item

Get the scan

You’ll lie on a flat table that moves through a large, doughnut-shaped scanner. The scan is painless and takes only a few minutes, though the full visit can take up to 30 minutes.

Item

Know what the scan shows

An LDCT creates detailed images of the lungs using a small amount of radiation. Most abnormal findings are not cancer, but more imaging or tests may be needed.

Item

Review next steps with your doctor

Your doctor will explain your results, recommend any follow-up care or testing, and advise on timing for your next routine LDCT exam.
