Rising to Every Challenge Re-Awakening Hope
- Screenings for Early Diagnosis and Peace of Mind
-
Chest pain, coughing, trouble swallowing, and vomiting don't necessarily mean a lung or esophageal cancer diagnosis is in your future. But wondering if that persistent cough is a symptom of something bigger can steal the joy from your life. Being proactive about your symptoms is the best way to put you on a path to wellness. Catching cancer early is the first step in getting proper treatment. That’s why AdventHealth works hard to make the screening process as simple as possible.
If you’re 55 years of age or older and have smoked at least one pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years (or two packs a day for 15 years), you may be eligible to take part in our Lung Health Program. As a participant, you will be connected with a personal Lung Care Coordinator who will guide you through the screening process, which encompasses the latest in genetic counseling, imaging, and minimally invasive diagnostic testing, including:
- Biopsy
- CT Scan
- Endoscopy (Esophageal Cancer)
- Sputum Cytology
- X-Ray
You want to stop wondering and start living without worry. We want that for you, too. The first step is screening. If your screening shows cancer, we'll begin to treat it immediately. And, if you're clear, we'll talk to you about risk factors and preventive measures so you can continue to live your healthiest life.
