There are several methods used to detect cancer, including:
Screening tests such as mammograms for breast cancer, Pap smears for cervical cancer, and colonoscopies for colorectal cancer. Imaging techniques like CT scans, MRI, and X-rays to visualize internal structures. Biopsy, where a sample of tissue is taken and examined under a microscope for cancerous cells. Blood tests that can detect specific markers associated with certain types of cancer.
