The Importance of Cancer Screenings

#EarlyDetection is key in diagnosing most forms of #cancer in its earliest stage possible. One of the best ways to ensure early detection is through screenings. #CancerScreenings can help find cancer in a pre-cancerous stage, as well as the early stages even before symptoms appear, which can make treatment less extensive and more effective. Join #SBexperts as they discuss cancer prevention and screenings for #thoraciccancer, #pancreaticcancer and #colorectalcancer.
