Decision Aid For Lung Cancer Screening with Computerized Tomography (CT)


You should consider being screened if you have all three

of these risk factors:
• You are 55–80 years old.
• You are a current smoker or a former

smoker who quit less than 15 years ago.
• You smoked at least 30 pack-years

(this means 1 pack per day for 30 years or

2 packs a day for 15 years, etc.).
