This is often the first test your doctor will do to look for any masses or spots on the lungs. Plain x-rays of your chest can be done at imaging centers, hospitals, and even in some doctorsâ offices. If the x-ray is normal, you probably donât have lung cancer (although some lung cancers may not show up on an x-ray).If something suspicious is seen, your doctor may order more tests.lain x-rays of your chest can be done at imaging centers, hospitals, and even in some doctorsâ offices.

The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) by National Cancer Institute (NCI) results show mortality benefit with low-dose CT, twenty percent fewer lung cancer deaths seen among those who were screened with low-dose spiral CT than with chest X-ray. Using a CT Scan increases the detection of lung cancer at Stage 1 up to the rate of 85 percent. Lung cancer is often found when the tumor is relatively large, which results in treatment that may require more extensive surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation therapy and less favorable outcomes when compared to detecting cancer earlier.
