  • About two weeks after screening, a text message provides access to the report. Open the link and enter personal information to view the result.
  • NCKU Hospital sends an encrypted report to the Health Services Division's designated nurse. If the report identifies a concern, the Division proactively contacts the participant, explains the general finding, helps arrange an appointment when needed, and continues follow-up care.
  • The report is written after a radiologist interprets the images and is intended for health professionals. Questions may be directed to Nurse Sung at the Health Services Division, extension 50436.
  • If the report identifies a lung nodule, do not become overly anxious. Follow the medical advice and arrange the recommended appointment.
