Cancer Prevention and Screening
One of the keys to successfully treating cancer is to catch the disease as early as possible and regular screenings are usually the best way to ensure early detection.
Annual physicals are a great first step, but depending on age and risk factors, some patients should consider additional screenings. Your primary care physician can give you more information as to what screenings make sense for you - additional information on risk factors and screening guidelines are below.
