This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
The Lung Health Check Pilot is a screening study designed to catch lung cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage using low-dose CT scans. Researchers know that when lung cancer is found early through imaging, people have better chances of survival. This trial combines a CT scan with a breathing assessment and collection of biological samples to help improve lung cancer detection in people at higher risk.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, but when it's found by symptoms alone, it's usually already advanced. Large studies in the USA and Europe have shown that regular low-dose CT screening can reduce lung cancer deaths by 20–26%, so this trial aims to bring that screening approach to Ireland.

You will attend a visit where you'll complete a breathing and respiratory disease assessment, receive counseling about smoking cessation if relevant, and undergo a low-dose CT scan of your chest. The study will also collect small biological samples for research purposes. The trial is designed to identify people at risk of lung cancer early, when treatment is typically more successful.
