Heart disease and lung cancer are serious and potentially deadly health conditions that share many of the same risk factors and are often found in the same people.
If doctors could screen for both conditions at the same time, using the same imaging technology, diagnosis could happen sooner and lives could be saved. Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute are working on a project, supported by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the National Institutes of Health (NIH), to combine screening for both cardiovascular disease and lung cancer into one low-dose CT scan.
