Early Detection of Lung Cancer Screening Class

COST $0
WHO CAN ATTEND  Members Only
Must pre-register

Participants will need a referral from their physician and must meet criteria for screening:

• Current or former smoker (quit within last 15 years)
• Between ages 50-80

Lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer. More people die from lung cancer each year than from breast, colon, and prostate cancers combined. Detecting lung cancer early can mean easier treatment and a better cure rate. Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, and even former smokers have elevated risk factors for years after quitting. If you would like to be proactive and get screened, contact your primary care physician to request a referral for lung cancer screening. You will be contacted by the instructor to verify screening criteria and confirm enrollment. Call 404-527-9887 with questions or for additional information.
