Screening is a cornerstone of cancer control.
Cancer screening tests increase the chance of finding cancer early, when treatment is likely to work best. With some cancers, including colorectal and cervical, screening can prevent the occurence of cancer.
I SCREEN, YOU SCREEN is a monthly initiative of the Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine to share information with the public about the importance of early cancer detection and screening. Written by health content writer, Ann Morrell, RN, this information will be shared each month on this website, the CRCofWM Facebook Page, and via our e-newsetter.
