When to ask about lung cancer screening

A low-dose CT scan can look for lung cancer before symptoms appear. Your age, smoking history, and overall health help determine whether annual screening makes sense.

Take the eligibility survey

A healthcare professional can help weigh the benefits and possible harms of screening. These details are from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommendation. The American Cancer Society guideline does not use years since quitting as a cutoff.

Plus One starts with a question

How Plus One works

ALCSI volunteers ask whether someone knows a person aged 50 to 80 with a smoking history who may benefit from learning about screening. The conversation can connect a friend or family member with information they did not have before.
