The North Arlington Health Department has been advised that a free low-dose CT screening program is being offered by the Saint Barnabas Lung Cancer Institute for individuals who are at high-risk for developing lung cancer to identify abnormalities earlier. Certain criteria must be met in order to qualify for this life-saving test.
Roland Romano, LPC, CTTS, RRT, will speak at the North Arlington Senior Center on April 12, 2013, beginning at 12 Noon to offer further information on the program and define what the requirements are to be eligible for the free screening. Mr. Romano is a licensed respiratory therapist and professional counselor certified in tobacco treatment.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States. It is most curable when diagnosed at an early stage
This program, in conjunction with St. Barnabas Medical Center, is open to surrounding communities. Seats will be limited, so registration is required. Please call the North Arlington Health Department at 201-955-5695.
