Screenings are used to diagnose a disease early before it manifests.

They are free tests and are offered to more or less extensive segments of the population.

If you regularly undergo screenings, you can detect diseases or abnormalities in time.

Any treatments after the screening can slow the progression of the disease or even lead to complete recovery, but it is important to start treatment as soon as possible.
