Why do some smokers die of lung cancer and others don’t? There are many factors. And while there’s no way of knowing for sure if you will, the health risk assessor, developed by researchers at The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health, can calculate your chances.

The Health Risk Assessor shows your lifetime risk of dying of lung cancer, compared with the risks of others.

Determine your risk by answering the following questions:

	What is your age? (Must be 18 or older)

	What is your gender?
	Male Female
	What group do you consider yourself to be in?
	White Hispanic Black Asian
	Have you smoked more than 20 packs of cigarettes in your life?
	Yes No
	Do you now smoke cigarettes?
	Yes No
	How old were you when you first started regular cigarette smoking?

	How many cigarettes a day do you smoke now?

	Have any of your close family members (including your mother, father, sister or brother) been diagnosed with lung cancer?
	No Yes
	Has a doctor or other health professional ever told you that you have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (either emphysema or chronic bronchitis)?
	No Yes
	In your occupation, have you been exposed to any of the following materials: asbestos, radon, arsenic, nickel, silica, dust, or fumes?
