If you are between the ages of 50 and 74, currently a smoker (or have quit within the past 15 years) and have a history of smoking at least a pack of cigarettes a day for 20 years, you may qualify for a free low-dose CT lung screening.
The screening is quick and painless and you do NOT have to be a Lahey patient to receive this free screening. However, your primary care doctor must order the test.
To learn more, please call 1-855-CT-CHEST between 8:30am–4:30pm, Monday through Friday to complete a screening questionnaire.
MRI Quench at Lahey Clinic [Video]
This morning, Lahey Clinic quenched an older 1.5 MRI to make room for new, state-of-the-art 3T system at the Burlington facility. The scheduled quenching went off without a hitch. Non toxic cold helium vapor was released into the air for approximately one minute... that's the large cloud of white smoke you see in the video.
The new MRI unit should be available to patients within 12 weeks. As always, we strive to provide all Lahey patients with the best technology available.
