At VCL, our main goal is to safeguard public health.
By adding lung health screening to our services, we can offer advice and tests to those in need.
Our new lung screening service supports NICE guidance for lung screening high risk patients. We determine this by using nationally-approved metrics, such as the Liverpool Risk Calculator.
