The West London Lung Health Check service has expanded and begun to operate in Sutton.
Patients from participating GP practices in the borough have started receiving invitations for a free Lung Health Check. Those patients who are eligible for a CT scan of their lungs are now able to have their scan at our mobile CT scanner located in the car park of Tesco Sutton Cheam Extra.
The state of the art Siemens CT scanner is able to image the whole lungs in a matter of seconds, allowing for quick and speedy diagnosis of any lung problems.
