Who is eligible?

You may qualify for the program if you:

• Are aged 50–70 years
• Have no signs or symptoms of lung cancer
• Have smoked the equivalent of 30 pack-years or more
• Currently smoke or quit within the past 10 years

Your GP will confirm eligibility and provide a referral for a low dose CT (LDCT) chest scan. If you’re unsure about your smoking history, your GP can help calculate your pack-years.

All eligible patients will have their low dose CT scan bulk billed.

What does the scan involve?

• A quick, low dose CT scan of the chest
• Takes about 15 minutes in total, with less than 30 seconds of actual scanning
• No preparation required
• Our radiographers will guide you through the process and ensure your comfort
