In our daily lives, we take numerous precautions to safeguard our health and well-being. We buckle up in cars, install smoke detectors in our homes, get vaccinated against diseases like COVID-19, and invest in gym memberships to stay fit. These measures are second nature to many of us, yet when it comes to cancer detection, a similar proactive approach is often lacking.

Before we take a new car on the road, we study the manual. We learn what the warning lights mean—when to buy gas or check the oil, refill the tires, or stop the vehicle entirely.

Modern life surrounds us with alert systems—dashboard indicators, smoke detectors, fitness trackers—each designed to protect us

According to the American Cancer Society, people diagnosed with localized (early-stage) colorectal cancer have a 5-year survival rate of 91%, compared to just 14% when the disease has spread to distant organs.

Regular cancer screenings are one of the most effective ways to detect cancer early, when treatment is most successful. Screening tests help identify cancer before symptoms appear, significantly improving survival rates. Why Screenings Matter Studies show that survival rates for colorectal cancer exceed 90% when caught in stage one or zero. Additionally, screening with colonoscopies can remove precancerous polyps before they have a chance to grow and cause serious issues. Available Screening Methods Colonoscopy: This procedure allows doctors to examine

Cervical cancer deaths in the U.S. have dropped significantly thanks to widespread screening, but there’s still work to be done. Most cases occur in women who haven’t been adequately screened, diagnosed, or treated, and disparities persist across racial, ethnic, and geographic lines. Black, Hispanic, Native American, and Asian women—along with those in rural or underserved areas—face higher incidence and mortality rates, often due to barriers in access to screening and follow-up care.
