Low Dose CT Cost Comparison

71271TC (CPT)

A low dose CT scan of the chest is a quick imaging test that uses X-rays to create detailed pictures of your lungs and chest. This test is often recommended for people with a significant smoking history to screen for lung cancer before symptoms develop, or sometimes to evaluate existing lung concerns. During the procedure, you'll lie still on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped machine that takes images, which typically takes just a few minutes.
