You can’t find it when it’s itsy bitsy

Screening detects cancer in its earliest stages by testing or checking for the disease when you don’t have symptoms. Screening tests can find colon, cervical, breast and other cancers at their earliest, most treatable stages. Some tests can find precancerous cells that can be treated before cancer even has the chance to develop.

The Canadian Cancer Society started the campaign Get Screened Pei earlier this year to make people of Prince Edward Island aware that a screening test is important.

People who did a screening can put themselves on the map in this province-wide campaign.
