Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. Often the disease does not show symptoms until it has progressed to advanced stages, when it is difficult to treat and chances of survival decrease. A low-radiation-dose CT scan can detect lung cancer at its earliest stages, making treatment both easier and more effective.

Mammograms and low-dose CT scans can help detect cancer early—when it is most treatable—long before it can be felt, and symptoms appear.
