What is a low-dose CT scan? Computed Tomography (CT) is a type of X-ray. For lung cancer screening, a CT is used to take a detailed picture of the chest. It is painless and uses a low-dose of radiation to minimize risk. CT screening can find areas of concern before there are any symptoms and when lung cancer likely can be cured.
