Early Detection Methods

Early detection methods are techniques used to identify diseases like cancer or other health conditions before symptoms appear. These methods include screenings such as blood tests, imaging scans (like mammograms or ultrasounds), and laboratory analysis of samples (such as biopsies). The goal is to find problems early when they are easier to treat and more likely to be cured. Regular check-ups and following recommended screening schedules are essential for effective early detection, improving health outcomes and reducing the risk of serious complications.
