A recent paper in Annals Of Internal Medicine argued if the too much of cancer screening misleading us about the obvious cancer risk factors. The widespread use of scrutiny dependent cancers and the risk of overdiagnosis, unnecessary or even harmful treatment should really need to ponder upon. Especially, breast, thyroids, and prostate are scrutiny dependent cancers. Men who have a significant family history of prostate cancer are likely to undergo prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and other screening tests.
Same will be the case of breast and thyroid cancer. But researchers feel that more the screening tests, ultrasounds, MRIs, and biopsies, then more likely that even harmless case of cancer is found. Do you support this observation?
