The Lung Cancer Screening is a low-dose CT scan (computed tomography) which is a type of imaging. The scan covers the entire chest and provides a more detailed look than a standard chest X-ray. The exam takes about 15 minutes in total, with the actual scan lasting only 5 to 10 seconds.
Patients also spend just 20 minutes in the scanner with PET/CT as compared to 45 minutes with conventional exams. Although NaF PET/CT scans deliver a slightly higher dose of radiation than conventional scans (5 mSv versus 7.4 mSv), the radiation exposure is still low. In fact, NaF PET/CT may prove accurate enough to reduce the need for additional imaging tests, leading to lower overall radiation exposure for patients.
