Abstract

Today, lung cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in the world, with an early sign of Lung Nodule. One of the standard procedures to detect it is a radiological examination using Computed Tomography (CT) Scan technology. This study aims to describe the use of CT Scan to detect the presence of lung cancer. This research uses Philips CT Scan 16 Slice Model MX16 Evo2 and Philips CT Scan 128 Slide Model Ingenuity Core 128. The procedure includes the collection of CT Scan tomographic image data and then the reading of the data by a radiologist. Based on the diagnosis, the results found that lung cancer types of adenocarcinoma, squamous, liver metastases, and metastatic brain tumors.
