Usually, symptoms of lung cancer don’t appear until the disease is already at an advanced stage. During an LDCT scan, you lie on a table and a CT machine makes detailed images of your lungs.
Lung cancer is when cell growth in the lungs becomes abnormal and cancer cells are created. A gene mutation, or change, can make this happen. Cells normally divide, grow, and may die, at set times.
Lung cancer as the name suggests, is a type of cancer that develops in the lungs, usually in the cells lining in one's airways. This happens when abnormal cells start to grow uncontrollably.
