About Lung Cancer Screening

  • If you qualify for a NHS Lung Cancer Screening Check, you will receive an invite letter through the post.
    • This letter will inform you that one of our health advisors will call you for your lung cancer screening check within two weeks of receiving your letter to have your telephone assessment which will take approximately 15 minutes. If you would prefer to call in at a convenient time for you, the number to call is 0115 896 3600.
  • During the telephone call you will be asked questions about your overall lung health, lifestyle, family and medical history.
  • You may then be invited to have a lung CT scan. This checks for early signs of lung cancer and is called lung cancer screening.
  • Scans take place on mobile vans in community locations so they are local and easy to get to.
