Complete Cancer Screening Package for Men : Details
Cancer screening for men in Kakinada at Medicover Hospitals is the process of testing people for cancer before they show any signs or symptoms of the disease. Our cancer screening test aims to detect cancer early when it is most treatable.
One commonly included test is the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test, which can help detect prostate cancer in its early stages in males. This test measures the levels of PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland, in the blood. Another test included is a low-dose CT scan of the chest, which can detect early signs of lung cancer in people at high risk of developing it.
Our cancer screening package is affordable and includes multiple investigations for men. It detects cancer early, allowing for more effective treatment and improved outcomes.
However, cancer screening tests may have limitations and potential risks. False-positive results can lead to unnecessary follow-up testing and anxiety. Meanwhile, false-negative results can delay diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, discussing the benefits and risks of cancer screening with a healthcare provider is essential based on factors such as age, family history, and other medical conditions.
