Cancer Screening Tests

Stand up to cancer! Do your self breast exam. Do your scrotal exam. Do your preventive screening tests ordered by your health care providers. Do it routinely. "Just do it!"

A thorough medical history and physical exam includes the basic cancer screening. Some tests considered for routine cancer screening are:

  • mammogram, MRI, sonogram - breast cancer

  • PSA (prostate specific antigen) - prostate cancer

  • colonoscopy - colon cancer

  • stool blood check - colon cancer

  • PAP smear - cervical cancer

  • complete blood count - blood cancer

  • CT or MRI scan - lung cancer, brain cancer, pancreatic cancer
    and cancer in other body areas being scanned

  • pelvic sonogram - ovarian cancer

  • body scan (neck to buttocks and in between) - checks
    body for cancer and other medical conditions.

Screening exams and tests save lives. Talk to your doctor. Be sure your doctor goes over the test results with you and explains EVERYTHING! Leave with your questions answered! Be sure to follow up to prevent any delays.

Prevention stops cancer. Check yourself and get yourself checked.  Best health!
