EBT LUNG SCAN:EBT LUNG SCAN:

This year alone, Lung Cancer will claim the lives of 160,000 individuals.

The American Cancer Society reports the survival rate for Lung Cancer is 12%-15% due to a lack of early detection.

Generally, There are no known symptoms until advanced disease exists, with a 15% survival rate.

Lung Cancer kills more people than Breast, Colon and Prostate cancers COMBINED.

EBT Scanning is the ONLY proven screening that ACCURATELY detects Lung Diseases early, when they are MOST CURABLE!

Electron Beam Tomography (CT) Scan- Gives a more detailed picture than chest x-rays. CT Scans detect extremely small tumors and can determine if the tumor has spread to lymph nodes surrounding the lungs.

Chest X-Ray- The most common test used to detect lung cancer. Tumors may be seen on a chest x-ray, unless the tumors are too small or hidden by a bone.

EBT LUNG SCAN:EBT LUNG SCAN:

“Using EBT CT Screening for Lung Cancer can detect disease at the earliest stage in 85% of patients. The estimated 10 year

survival rate goes to 92%, for those detected early.”

-Claudia Henschke, MD and David Yankelevitz, MDThe New England Journal of Medicine

CT Scanning allows at least 80% of lung cancers to be diagnosed at Stage 1.

The Curability of Stage 1 lung cancers is 80-90% when Annual CT screening is used.

The American Lung Association states 1 in 7 people die from Lung Disease.

“No More Excuses. No More Lung

Cancer.”

The American Cancer Society states EARLY DETECTION is the most successful way to treat cancers.

EBT CT- CT scans use computers to create more-detailed images than those produced by conventional X-rays.

When kidney cancer spreads outside the kidney, cancer cells are often found in nearby lymph nodes. Kidney cancer also may spread to the lungs, bones, or liver.

And it may spread from one kidney to the other. – National Cancer Institute

THE KIDNEY SCAN:THE KIDNEY SCAN:

- Pain in the side that does not go away

- Fever - Weight loss

- A lump or mass in the side or the abdomen

- Feeling very tired or having a general feeling of poor health

- Blood in the urine

Symptoms:

THE LIVER SCAN:THE LIVER SCAN:

The American Cancer Society states survival rates are much higher with routine screening.

Liver Cancer is sometimes called a "silent disease" because in an early stage it often

does not cause symptoms.

“THE SILENT DISEASE”…

- Pain in the upper abdomen on the right side- Pain may extend to the back and shoulder

- Swollen abdomen (bloating)

- Fever

- Nausea and vomiting

- Loss of appetite and feelings of fullness

- Yellow skin and eyes, and dark urine from blood

- Weight loss

- Weakness or feeling very tired

Symptoms:

The American Cancer Society states the

survival rate for Liver Cancer is 10.8%.

THE PANCREATIC SCAN:THE PANCREATIC SCAN:

- Pain in the Upper Abdomen

- Nausea and Vomiting

- Itching

- Yellow skin and eyes, and dark urine

- Loss of Appetite/ Weight loss

- Weakness or feeling very tired

Symptoms:

By that time, the cancer is likely to have spread to other parts of the body and surgical removal is no longer possible.

The American Cancer Society states the over all survival rate for Pancreatic Cancer is LESS THAN 10%.

Pancreatic cancer spreads rapidly and is seldom detected in its early stages.

Signs and symptoms may not appear until the disease is quite advanced.

The Mayo Clinic studied EBT CT scans of Pancreatic Cancer patients and found had they

been scanned six months sooner, the cancer would have

been treatable with surgery.

The survival rate of Pancreatic Cancer, from the time of diagnosis, is commonly 3-6 months.

"I’ve always been as healthyas a horse and never had a Chest pain in my entire life. Then one of my buddies Suggested that a group of us get tested, and wouldn't you know it - I was the one with serious heart disease. I wastotally shocked and so was my doctor, but further testing confirmed the diagnosis. I had angioplasty performed within days and my surgeon said I was one very lucky man.“

Frank Ward, age 49Blue Island, IL

"When I mentioned to afriend that I’d just had aheart and lung scan, he

seemed surprised. He toldme he couldn’t think of onegood reason to get tested.

I told him I have 4 excellentreasons - Anne, Danny,

David, and Tommy. I feelreally blessed to have such

a wonderful family, and youbetter believe I’m going to

do everything within mypower to see that my boys have their dad around for
