Is it safe to have repeated low-dose CT scans?

The low-dose CT scans used in lung screening use only a small fraction of the radiation from a standard CT, making them safe for use in regular screening when clinically needed. The benefits of early detection far outweigh the small potential risk from radiation exposure, especially for people at higher risk of lung cancer.

We follow strict safety standards, using the lowest dose possible to achieve clear, accurate results. Your consultant will also review scan frequency to ensure your care is as safe and effective as possible.
