Could You Be at Risk of Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer often develops without obvious symptoms in its early stages. Unfortunately, many people do not discover it until the disease has progressed.
When lung cancer is found early, treatment is usually more effective and outcomes are often much better. That's why screening can be so important, particularly for people over 50, current or former smokers, those with a family history of lung cancer, or anyone with other risk factors.
Understanding your risk and seeking advice early can provide peace of mind and, if needed, allow treatment to begin at the earliest possible stage.
"Regular screening means we can find and address any concerns before they become serious, giving you a clear picture of your lung health and a plan that's right for you."
Dr Harish Mithiran, Founder & Medical Director, Neumark
Assess Your Risk Profile
1. Have you ever smoked?
2. Has anyone in your family had a history of lung disease?
3. Are you 40 or older?
Based on your responses, you may meet the requirements for low-dose CT lung screening. A brief five-minute scan can analyse localised tissue health before symptoms emerge, giving access to proactive early clinical management.
Book My LDCT Scan →While direct risk indicators appear low, pulmonary updates can affect multiple demographics. Low-dose CT screening pathways are structured from $400 before GST to support general patient reassurance.
Learn About Screening →Lung & Chest Conditions We Treat
At Neumark Surgery, we provide expert care for a wide range of lung and chest conditions. From lung nodules and lung cancer screening to complex thoracic surgery, our approach is tailored to each patient, ensuring clear guidance, personalised treatment, and the highest standard of care throughout every stage of your journey.
Lung Cancer Screening
Lung cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage because many patients have few or no
symptoms in the
early stages of the disease. A low-dose CT (LDCT) scan can help identify lung abnormalities
earlier, when
treatment options are typically more effective.
Screening may be appropriate for
current and former
smokers, as well as some non-smokers with additional risk factors. The scan is quick,
non-invasive,
requires no fasting, and can be completed in just a few minutes.
Sweaty Palms Surgery (ETS)
For people living with severe sweaty palms, everyday activities such as shaking hands,
writing, using
electronic devices, or handling paperwork can become challenging.
Endoscopic Thoracic
Sympathectomy
(ETS) is a minimally invasive keyhole procedure used to treat palmar hyperhidrosis. Through
small
incisions in the chest, the procedure targets the nerves involved in excessive sweating of
the hands. Many
patients experience a significant reduction in hand sweating following treatment.
A
thorough
consultation is essential to discuss expected outcomes, potential risks, and whether ETS is
appropriate
for your individual circumstances.
Have You Been Told You Have a Lung Nodule?
Finding out you have a lung nodule can be worrying, but most lung nodules are not cancer.
They are often
caused by previous infections, inflammation, scarring, or other non-cancerous
conditions.
Even when
a nodule appears low risk, careful assessment is important. We provide prompt specialist
review, expert
interpretation of your scans, and a personalised plan for monitoring or treatment if
required.
Our
goal is to provide clear answers and ensure that any concerning changes are identified as
early as
possible.
Advanced Thoracic Surgery
If you've been told you need chest or lung surgery, you may have more options than you
realise. We
provide advanced surgical care for lung and chest conditions, including minimally invasive
and
robotic-assisted techniques where appropriate.
Every treatment plan is tailored to
the individual,
with a focus on the best possible outcome and a
smooth recovery.

Yes. While smoking remains a major risk factor for lung cancer, the disease is not
exclusively a smoker's
disease. In fact, a significant number of lung cancer cases, especially in Asian
populations, occur in
people who have never smoked. Other factors, including age, family history, and certain
environmental
exposures, may contribute to an individual's risk.
The decision to undergo lung
cancer screening
should be based on your personal risk factors and medical history. Dr Harish can assess your
individual
circumstances and advise whether a low-dose CT (LDCT) scan may be appropriate for you.
Both robotic-assisted surgery and Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) are minimally
invasive
techniques that use small incisions to access the chest.
VATS is performed using a
camera and
specialised instruments, while robotic-assisted surgery provides the surgeon with enhanced
three-dimensional visualisation and greater instrument flexibility in certain
procedures.
The most
suitable approach varies from patient to patient. Dr Harish will discuss the available
options and
recommend the treatment approach that best meets your individual needs.
