We know how challenging it can be to deal with lung cancer, whether you’re at risk for the disease or you’re seeking the latest options for treatment. At Henry Ford Cancer, our team treats hundreds of patients every year for lung cancer. We understand what you’re going through, and we’ll be here for you every step of the way.
You can feel confident when you choose us for your lung cancer care. Our tumor board brings together many specialists in one room to pool their expertise and make the right recommendations for your care.
If you’ve been diagnosed with lung cancer by another provider, you may want to take this crucial step:
If we detect your lung cancer early, we have a better chance of saving your life. We use advanced computed tomography (CT) scanning for those at high risk for lung cancer. This quick, painless test, available once a year for those at risk, helps us detect lung cancer before it has a chance to spread out of the lungs.
Learn more about our lung cancer screening process.
If we detect potential lung cancer, it’s important to diagnose it as early and accurately as possible. We use a wide array of advanced imaging tests to locate potential lung cancer cells. In most cases, your doctor will also order a biopsy to take a sample from the suspected cancerous tissue so we can rule in or rule out a cancer diagnosis.
