What the petition asks
Fund an option for current and past cancer patients to be able to choose to have an annual CT Scan through the NHS.
A CT scan is one of the only ways to discover if cancer is present within the body. A person can have cancer and have multiple health test state that they are healthy. Allowing patients to opt in to an annual scan could be a preventative measure of allowing patients to take responsibility for their health. Whilst allowing them a better quality of living, as it can reduce the stress and worry of constant fear that their cancer has returned or developed in to other secondary cancers.
