IMPORTANT NUMBERS
CT Lung Cancer Screening
Lung cancer is responsible for 1 of every 3 cancer deaths
and is the most common cause of cancer death in most
populations. LDCT screening can detect many small lung
cancers before they are visible on a regular chest X-ray,
increasing treatment options and survival rates.
Does insurance cover this exam? As of February,
2015, Medicare covers LDCT Lung Cancer Screening for
beneficiaries who meet the eligibility criteria listed below.
We now offer
CT Lung forms
to simplify orders
Who Should Be Screened? Based on these results, new
national guidelines recommend annual CT Lung Cancer
Screening for:
Smokers age 55 to 77 years who have smoked for 30 pack years or more (Packyear smoking history is calculated by multiplying the number of years you have
smoked by the number of packs you smoke a day).
For more information about this and other screening exams provided by
Radiology Ltd., please visit our website at www.radltd.com.

Annual Screening Mammography
Why start at age 40?
Radiology Ltd. stands firmly
behind its recommendations
of annual mammography
starting at age 40 to ensure the
maximum benefit from screening
mammography. Our guidelines
are in accordance with the
American College of Radiology
and the Society for Breast Imaging.
While both the U.S. Preventive
Services Task Force and American
Cancer Society have revised
their screening mammography
guidelines, they state that starting
annual mammography at age 40
saves the most lives.
Radiology Ltd.’s local data from
2007-2014 shows that 14% of the cancers detected by a
screening mammogram were in women ages 40-49, further
supporting the start of screening mammograms at the
age of 40. Additionally, 40% of the life years lost to breast
cancer are in women diagnosed in their 40s.
For more information about this and other screening exams
provided by Radiology Ltd., please visit our websites at
www.radltd.com or screeningsforlife.com.
CT Colonography at CLIC!
What is a CT colonography or “virtual colonoscopy”?
CT colonography or “virtual
colonoscopy” is a safe, noninvasive
procedure for screening the colon
for precancerous polyps. Images
taken with a computed tomography
(CT) scanner allow our radiologists
to view the colon without inserting
a colonoscope.
