Examination

Smoker screening

There is no doubt that smoking significantly increases the risk of lung cancer. However, smoking is an addiction, and many do not succeed in their attempts to quit. An ultra-low-dose computer tomography of the lung (thorax) is recommended for all long-time smokers over the age of 50. Potential changes (cancer, emphysema, bronchitis) can be visualised at an early stage with these images. And yet: Benign and malignant changes cannot always be differentiated with a CT scan – follow-up examinations are often required.
