Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers, yet it often has no early symptoms.
A lung health check can help find any problems early, often before you notice anything is wrong, and when treatment could be simpler and more successful.
#LHCInHull
Danny and Christine from Hull were invited for a lung health check back in January 2020.
Now, they’re sharing their experience to encourage others to attend this important appointment, even if you think you don’t need it. #LHCInHull @HCVCancer
Here's their story ⬇️
Even if you feel fine, if you’re invited for a lung health check, it’s important to attend.
Lung cancer often doesn’t have any early symptoms, but this appointment can help find problems before you notice anything is wrong.
Don’t delay this lifesaving check. #LHCInHull
After an initial telephone appointment, some lung health check participants will be invited for a CT scan on a mobile unit.
A CT takes only a few seconds and is about the same radiation as a trans-Atlantic flight ✈️

"Nodules were found on my first scan. I had no symptoms, I wouldn't have gone to my GP."
A lung health check participant attending his second scan at @NorthPointSC encouraged others to book theirs:
"You get reassurance, peace of mind, and it's free - why wouldn't you?"
Our QR 'Improve your inhaler technique' posters are now out on the wards. Great meeting with @ARNS_UK to discuss future developments. Watch this space!
