Screening examinations

Depending on your entitlement, these include skin cancer screening, abdominal aortic aneurysm screening and cancer screening for men.

What to expect

We explain suitable screening examinations, including skin cancer screening and other investigations appropriate to your circumstances. Together, we discuss what the examination involves, its potential benefits and limitations, and which options are suitable for you.

Early detection and informed decisions

Screening is intended for people who do not yet have relevant symptoms. It aims to detect certain conditions at an earlier stage. However, it may also produce unclear findings that require further assessment. We therefore discuss benefits and limitations together.

Which examinations may be suitable?

Skin cancer screening checks the skin for unusual changes. Cancer screening for men includes the examinations available according to age and entitlement; a PSA test is not automatically included. Men aged 65 and over can have a one-off ultrasound screening of the abdominal aorta. We discuss which options are appropriate for you.

Before your appointment

Please bring existing medical reports and an up-to-date medication list. We discuss any special preparation, the exact scope and possible costs when arranging your appointment.
