Temple Healthy Chest Initiative’s Dual Screening Referral Process
Annual LDCT screening of the chest is becoming a globally recognized tool to diagnose lung cancer at an earlier stage — significantly improving patient outcomes and survival rates. Despite lung cancer and COPD sharing common risks, both are underdiagnosed and therefore untreated at early stages, limiting curative treatment options.
The Temple Healthy Chest Initiative is addressing this gap in care with spirometry screening - simultaneously screening patients for COPD, lung cancer, and other chest conditions.
