Screening For Lung Cancer May Help Heavy Smokers
(NAPSA)-While lung cancer is
the leading cause of cancer
death in the United States, some-
times, the most common type-
non-small cell lung cancer-can be
cured if it is found early enough.
More than 200,000 Americans
are diagnosed with lung cancer
each year. Smoking is the single
largest risk factor and is respon-
sible for about 85 percent of lung
cancer cases in the United
States. The more a person
smokes over time, the more like-
ly it is that he or she will get the
disease. The risk of lung cancer
also increases with age, with
most people developing the con-
dition after age 55.
The most important way to pre-
vent lung cancer is to stop smok-
ing and limit exposure to tobacco
smoke.
For heavy smokers who have not
been able to quit or who smoked
for a long time before quitting,
there is now evidence that
screening can prevent a large
number of lung cancer-related
deaths. Screening is important
because lung cancer has no
symptoms in its early stages.
Most cases of lung cancer are
not detected until a person has
symptoms, usually after the dis-
ease is already at an advanced
stage.
Who Should Be Screened?
The U.S. Preventive Services
Task Force (Task Force) now
recommends yearly lung cancer
screening using low-dose com-
puted tomography (also known
as a CT scan) for people who are
at high risk for lung cancer.
People are considered to be at
high risk if they:
• Are between 55 and 80 years
old
• Have a history of smoking for 30
“pack-years” or more
• Are either a current smoker or
quit within the past 15 years.
Pack-years are determined by
multiplying the number of packs
(which typically contain 20 ciga-
rettes) smoked daily by the num-
999 ✦ PUBLIC
NOTICES
ber of years a person has
smoked. For example, you would
have a 30 pack-year history if you
smoked a pack of cigarettes a
day for 30 years, two packs a day
for 15 years, or half a pack a day
for 60 years.
The goal of screening for lung
cancer is to detect the cancer at
an early stage so that it can be
successfully treated. There are
other types of tests that also
screen for lung cancer, but the
Task Force found that low-dose
CT scans are the most accurate
for finding cancer early.
Why Not Screen Everyone?
Not
everyone
should
be
screened for lung cancer, not
even all smokers. This is
because there are some risks
from low-dose CT scans and
these are greater for people who
are not at high risk for lung can-
cer. For example, people are
exposed to a small amount of
radiation during a CT scan.
Repeated exposure to this radia-
tion can actually cause cancer in
healthy people. Also, people at
lower risk are more likely to have
a false-positive test result (a test
result that shows a person has a
disease when he or she does
not). False-positive results can
cause anxiety and can lead to fol-
low-up tests and surgeries that
aren’t beneficial and have their
own significant risks. In addition,
screening is not beneficial for
people who would be unable
(because of poor health) or
unwilling to undergo treatment for
lung cancer. Treatment involves
surgery to remove the cancerous
part of the lung.

Before
Screening,
Quit
Smoking
It’s important to remember that
getting screened for lung cancer
is not an alternative to quitting
smoking. Quitting smoking is still
the best way to reduce your risk
of developing and dying from
lung cancer. The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention
offers a toll-free quit line ((800)
QUIT-NOW) and a text messag-
ing service (Text QUIT to 47848)
to help you get started. See your
primary care clinician to discuss
ways to help you quit smoking if
you still smoke.
How To Get Screened
The Affordable Care Act requires
private insurance companies to
cover the cost of lung cancer
screening for eligible enrollees,
without
a
co-payment.
Additionally, the Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services
recently decided to cover yearly
lung cancer screening for people
with Medicare who are between
55 and 77 years old and are oth-
erwise considered “high risk” as
defined by the Task Force.
If your clinician thinks screening
is right for you, check with your
health insurance company to see
if the cost of screening would be
covered and what requirements
need to be met for coverage.
Then, work with your primary
care clinician to find an accredit-
ed imaging facility that has
experts who are experienced and
knowledgeable about lung can-
cer screening.
Recommendations To Protect
Your Health
The Task Force is an independ-
ent group of national experts in
prevention and evidence-based
medicine. The aim of its work is
to evaluate and identify critical
preventive health services that
primary care professionals can
perform.
