CT Lung Cancer Screening

CT Lung Cancer Screening

Starting 1 July 2025, CT Lung Screening will be available as part of a new Australian Government initiative aimed at detecting lung cancer early; when it’s most treatable and survival rates are significantly higher.

At South West Radiology, we are proud to be an accredited partner in the National Lung Cancer Screening Program, offering low-dose CT (LDCT) lung screening for eligible patients under this life-saving initiative.

Why Get Screened? 

Low-dose CT lung screening is a safe, effective way to detect signs of lung cancer before symptoms appear. Early detection allows for more treatment options and better outcomes. 

Am I Eligible? 

Eligibility is based on your age and smoking history. You may qualify if you: 
Your referring GP or specialist can assess your eligibility and refer you for screening.

What’s Involved?

The screening involves a low-dose CT scan of the chest, taking only a few minutes to complete.

It’s a simple scan that could save your life.

An X-Ray (radiograph) is an image that uses radiation to create pictures of bones and other internal organs such as your lungs and bowel. Different parts of the body absorb the x-rays in varying degrees. Dense bone absorbs much of the radiation while soft tissue such as muscle, fat and organs, allow more of the x-rays to pass through them. As a result, bones appear white on an x-ray, soft tissue appears grey and air appears black.
No special preparation is required for an x-ray. You will be asked to remove all metal objects from the x-ray beams, and please advise the technologist if you have any metallic implants, artificial hips or metallic screws or pins in your hips.
You will be asked to stand or lie down in different positions that allow the best digital image of the body part of interest. During the x-ray, you will be asked to hold your breath in order to improve the quality of the images. An x-ray may also sometimes be taken of an unaffected limb for comparison purposes.
Women should always inform their physician or the x-ray technologist if they are pregnant.
An X-ray will only take a few minutes for each body part. When the test is over, it may be necessary to wait a few minutes while the images are reviewed to see if more are needed.
