A low-dose CT (LDCT) of the chest is a low-radiation imaging study that can detect small pulmonary nodules and other abnormalities before they are more advanced and cause symptoms.
Although lung cancer screening is traditionally focused on individuals with a significant smoking history, lung cancer also occurs in people without conventional risk factors. Family history, environmental exposures, and genetic factors may all influence individual risk.
Within the longevity program, LDCT chest is included in higher tier memberships as part of a broader strategy for early detection. All findings are interpreted by a radiologist and reviewed with you by your internal medicine physician, with clear recommendations for follow-up imaging, additional investigations, or specialist referral when appropriate.
