• Lung-Cancer Screening, Low-dose CT: Lung cancer screening has been shown to save lives through early detection and intervention. Low-dose CT allows for lung cancer to be detected before symptoms develop. Currently, no official recommendation by German authorities exist but international standards recommend screening program for those at high risk and: 50 to 80 years of age, have at least 20 pack-years of smoking history.
