What to expect
If you are eligible, you will receive a letter or text message inviting you for an initial Lung Health Check.
The initial assessment will take place over the phone with a health professional. During the initial Lung Health Check, you will be asked some questions about your breathing, overall lung health, lifestyle and family and medical history.
Based on your answers a risk assessment will be carried out and if your score means that you are at a higher risk of Lung cancer you will be invited to a face-to-face assessment with a Specialist Lung Health Check Nurse.
At this appointment additional checks will be carried out and you will then normally be offered a low dose CT scan.
The scan will take place at the Community Diagnostic Centre in Newmarket.
