Improved chances of recovery due to screening Those with lung tumors that are detected at an early stage have a better chance of recovery. The tumors are often still small, localized and have not yet spread [...] subjects are examined using modern and gentle low-dose computer tomography (CT). In this way, lung tumors can be detected at an early stage and the mortality rate from lung cancer reduced. The test is carried
