When was the last time you visited
for a “lung service”?

Lung diseases are a major health challenge in Austria, with COPD, asthma and lung cancer among the most common diseases.

Therefore, regular check-ups are important for the early detection and successful treatment of lung diseases.

Is it time for a “lung service”?

How are your lungs?

Our lungs are
our "engine" for life.

Regular check-ups can help maintain the performance of your lungs.

In everyday life, we often don't realise how much strain is put on our lungs. Like a car that loses performance due to the miles driven and exertion, our lungs can also suffer from invisible damage.

Smoking, air pollution and unhealthy lifestyle habits are particularly damaging to the lungs.

The effects are not always immediately noticeable, but they can have a negative impact on lung function in the long term.

Lung screening helps to detect problems early on before they become serious.

Once a year, it's time to go for a “service”.

The lung check-up is the “lung service” that helps you keep your lungs in top shape and detect problems in good time.

How does the “lung service” work?

  • The lung screening is free of charge and usually only takes 15 minutes.
  • It consists of simple, painless tests. These include measuring lung function, X-rays or a CT scan and, if necessary, blood tests.
  • These checks reveal potential risks and help you stay on top of your lung health.
