Screening
The NHS offers a number of screening programmes for a wide range of conditions and illnesses.
Screening is used to find out if a person who might be at risk of developing a particular condition or disease, has any of the signs or symptoms.
Screening is mainly used either to identify a condition that can be helped through appropriate treatment or to identify a condition or illness that if left untreated, would cause ill health or even death (such as cancer).
