Cancer Screening
Moffitt Cancer Center Screening and Prevention is an offsite clinic at Moffitt that provides the latest in cancer genetics research, screening technologies for breast, cervical, prostate, ovarian, and skin cancer, as well as preventative counseling. Through these services, Moffitt helps individuals understand and reduce their risk for developing cancer. To schedule an appointment, call 813-745-6769.
Moffitt Cancer Center offers low-dose CT lung cancer screening. Based on national guidelines, the lung cancer screening targets people between the ages of 55 to 74, who have more than a 30 pack-year history of cigarette smoking. (A 30 pack-year is equivalent to one pack per day for 30 years, two packs per day for 15 years, etc.) For those who don’t meet the criteria, a physician’s order is required. Appointments may also be made with a pulmonologist in Moffitt’s lung cancer program to discuss the risks and benefits of screening. To schedule a chest CT screening appointment, call the New Patient Appointment Center at 813-745-3980 or 1-888-860-2778. Appointments are available Monday through Saturday at Moffitt. For your convenience, screening is available at both Moffitt Cancer Center-Main Campus or Moffitt at International Plaza. For questions, call Cancer Answers at 1-888-MOFFITT.
