Screening

Screening helps find some cancers early so that they can be treated as soon as possible. It can also find changes in some cells before they become cancerous.
Breast screening

Regular breast screening using mammograms can find early breast cancers.
Cervical screening
The NHS offers regular cervical screening from the age of 25 to 64 to women who are registered with a GP. The test aims to prevent cervical cancer from developing.
Bowel screening
Bowel screening aims to find bowel cancer early, before symptoms develop. Find out when you will be invited to take part and what this might involve.
