Cancer detection and diagnosis often involve a combination of methods:
- Screening Tests: Routine tests like mammograms, colonoscopies, and Pap smears can detect cancer early. - Imaging Techniques: X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and PET scans provide detailed images of the body's interior. - Biopsies: Tissue samples are examined microscopically to confirm the presence of cancer cells. - Blood Tests: Certain markers in the blood can indicate cancer.
