Going to the doctor for a yearly checkup may be challenging, but don’t delay getting a screening test for the most prevalent cancers that affect men. Doctors are more comfortable treating you when you reach them early. Cancer screening indicates testing for diseases and conditions that may not produce symptoms. If you previously had a disease or condition, frequent testing is needed.
The cancer screening package for men consists of lab investigations that cover blood tests, including serum creatinine, Complete Blood Picture(CBP), Fasting Blood Glucose(FBS), and Prostate-Specific Antigen(PSA), imaging tests, including USG abdomen with the pelvis, X-Ray chest PA view, and oncology consultation.
Men above 40 years are at risk of various cancers such as lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, etc. Such cancers are critical for survival.
Timely diagnosis helps with the early identification of these cancers. Delay in diagnosis leads to the cancer spreading to various other parts of the body and makes the condition difficult to treat. If diagnosed early, these cancers can be detected and treated successfully. So avail yourself of our cancer screening package tailored for men in Hyderabad.
