Not every health threat is easy to spot. Screening tests can prevent some cancers or catch them early, often before symptoms appear and when treatment is more likely to work best. Talk with your doctor about which screenings are right for you and when to get them. Another threat that's easy to miss: too much UV exposure from the sun, which can lead to skin cancer. Simple options like shade, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, protective clothing, and broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 15 or higher can help lower your risk. #SharkWeek# #ChronicDisease# #CatchCancerEarly# #CancerScreening# #CancerPrevention#

As part of our mission to bring awareness to prostate cancer, we are proud to highlight our partner, @WinshipAtEmory Mobile Prostate Cancer Screening Unit, a vital community resource dedicated to increasing access to early cancer detection across Georgia. To learn more:

Yesterday I did a proactive whole-body MRI at @prenuvo for early cancer screening and other diseases. Luckily no worrisome or high risk findings. I had a few minor findings (common and benign things), and the explanation and reassurance was very well done in the report. The MRI even detected a lingering sinus infection I've had for the past 4 weeks! The images you get of your body are incredible too. It can't possibly hurt (except the pocket; it's $2,500) to do these regularly and monitor changes over time. Their MRI setup is quite nice too. They are a bit more spacious than the ones I've seen at hospitals, but most importantly they put special glasses on you with a 45° mirror that lets you watch a movie projected behind you. (You choose the movie/show.) Makes a huge difference for claustrophobia because the space feels much bigger when looking through the mirror. It's also nice you can see a clock in the screen, so you know approximately how much time you have remaining inside the magnet. Overall, impressed.

For women across the UK, cervical cancer is the 14th most common but a third who are eligible aren’t up to date with cervical screening. Could these new cervical cancer screening kits be a ‘game changer’? Sky's Sadiya Chowdhury reports:

I’ve delivered billions to make life more affordable, from increasing cancer screening access to helping build affordable housing, and I won’t stop now — especially as Trump and DeSantis try to steal Broward’s political power.

🚨Alibaba’s DAMO Academy has developed the Esophageal AI-Guided malignant Lesion Evaluation (EAGLE). It’s an AI model that can detect precancerous lesions and esophageal cancer from noncontrast chest CT, a task historically considered impossible. The model was validated across 80,612 patients in 12 centers across 3 countries. • 90.0% sensitivity for esophageal cancer • 52.5% sensitivity for precancerous lesions • 98.5% specificity It also maintained comparable performance on low-dose CT, potentially enabling esophageal cancer screening through existing lung-cancer screening programs.
