An estimated 230,000 people will be diagnosed with lung cancer in 2025, according to the Lung Cancer Research Foundation. However, early detection lung cancer screenings can help reduce high risk cases of lung cancer by 20%. That’s why at INTEGRIS Health, we not only encourage you to get screened for lung cancer, but we also bring you the latest, most accurate, life-saving lung cancer imaging technology at an affordable price. Lung scans at all INTEGRIS Health facilities are $100 and heart and lung scans are $150.
According to the American Lung Association, most lung cancer cases are diagnosed at later stages when the cancer has spread to other organs, treatment options are less likely to be curative and survival is lower. In general, the earlier that lung cancer is diagnosed, the more likely that treatments will be effective and improve chances of survival.
Nationally, only 24% of cases are caught early when the five-year survival rate is much higher (60%). Unfortunately, most cases (46%) are not caught until a late stage when the survival rate is only 6%.
If you don't qualify for a lung screening and are experiencing these symptoms, contact your primary care provider.
