In the six months since the launch of the lung cancer screening program, 10,088 citizens have received funding for their studies

In the six months since the launch of the lung cancer screening program, 10,088 citizens have received funding for their studies. Such a statement made today the Mayor of Tbilisi.

“Tbilisi City Hall launched its lung cancer screening programme in May this year. Residents can receive a low-dose computed tomography (CT) scan free of charge at 27 medical facilities.

Over six months, the Municipal Department of Healthcare and Social Services funded lung cancer screening for 10,088 residents. Of these, 140 were advised to undergo further tests to clarify the diagnosis. Under the Tbilisi City Hall programme, free lung cancer screening is available to people registered in the capital who are aged 45 to 75 inclusive and who currently use tobacco or quit within the past 15 years. I once again urge you to take advantage of this programme without putting off your screening. Early screening is vital to the health and safety of our residents”, - said Kakha Kaladze.
