Often with no symptoms, most lung cancer is
discovered after it is well advanced. Saint
Joseph’s Hospital now offers spiral
slice CT scans to detect early stage lung
cancer. The scan is quick, painless
and requires no contrast dyes. The
cost is $325.00 cash, check, credit card (not
covered by insurance). If you are concerned
about lung cancer risk, please call 404-851-5175,
or email canscreen@sjha.org for
