Cancer Screening

Cancer can be discovered early or prevented altogether through periodic check-ups and screening procedures.  At Stamford Hospital we focus on regular prevention and  screening programs as well as the identification of high risk individuals.

The most common cancers for which screening tests are available include breast, gynecological, skin, lung, colorectal, and prostate. Programs offered at Stamford Hospital are:

• Routine screening exams
• High risk evaluations
• Chemoprevention (the use of drugs to prevent cancer in high-risk patients)
• Genetic testing and counseling
• Nutritional counseling
• Lung screening for smokers and ex-smokers
• Smoking cessation programs
