Lung cancer screening? It's good to know. If detected early, more than 65% of lung cancers can be successfully treated.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in Australia, but with the National Lung Cancer Screening Program, we have the opportunity to change that. Getting a scan is simple, free, and it could save your life.

If you're aged 50 to 70 and have a smoking history, ask your doctor or healthcare provider about lung screening.
