Moreover, it can show lung nodules that can be too tiny for a normal X-ray or even an MRI scan to detect. While typical X-rays can pick out lung nodules as small as a ten-cent coin, low-dose CT scans can discern and showcase lung abnormalities the size of a rice grain.
Since not all nodules are cancerous, ICS� oncologist will arrange for a biopsy for further confirmation on whether the nodules are cancerous. After all, the smaller the detected cancerous nodules are, the less likely the cancerous cells have spread to the other parts of the body.
By detecting the cancerous cells earlier, it allows for more treatment options for lung cancer and also gives the patient a better survival chance.
Another noteworthy trait that low-dose CT scans have is that these low-dose scans take lesser time than the typical X-ray. A low-dose CT scan can be done in a matter of minutes. With more accurate detection, lesser time taken, and less radiation, those at risk of lung cancer would have increased chances of getting early-stage treatment for lung cancer, which provide higher chances of recovery.
As an organisation specialising in cancer diagnosis and treatment in Singapore, ICS also offers cold caps and scalp cooling systems in a snugly fitting hat.
