Taking charge of your health starts with prevention and early detection. Cancer screening is one of the most effective ways to identify pre-cancerous changes or cancer early, often before symptoms develop. Early detection can improve treatment outcomes, provide more treatment options, and help you stay healthier for longer.
If you have a family history of cancer, regular screening should be an important part of your healthcare routine. Speak with your doctor about the screening tests that may be suitable for you. Should any abnormal findings arise, further assessment can help clarify the results and ensure you receive the appropriate care as early as possible.
The 3 most common cancers are: Breast, Cervical and Colorectal Cancer. The chart below shows the recommended national screening guidelines for men and women at average risk for these 3 cancers.
