Cancer Care (Do Not Delete)

Cancer Screenings

Regular visits to your primary care physician are essential for maintaining good health, but early detection of cancer could save your life. Catching cancer in its early stages means it’s easier to treat — and that’s where screenings come in.

Tanner Cancer Specialists Warn: Don’t Skip Your Screenings

Screenings are a proactive way to manage your health. Tanner Cancer Care specialists stress the importance of regular screenings to detect cancer as early as possible, giving you the best chance for successful treatment. Watch this video (at right) to learn more about the life-saving role of screenings.

At Tanner, or through our affiliated physicians, we offer a variety of screenings tailored to suit your needs. Take charge of your health and schedule a cancer screening today. Learn more about available screenings at Tanner in the section below.

Early cancer detection could save your life

Direct Access Colonoscopy

Save time and the cost of pre-procedure appointments with Tanner's direct-access colonoscopy service.

Find out if you qualify for a direct-access colonoscopy by calling 770-812-9097.

Lung Cancer
Screening

Tanner offers a simple, non-invasive screening that can find lung cancer at its earliest stages, when it's easier to treat.

Low-dose CT screenings for lung cancer use only a small amount of X-ray radiation. This test requires no needles, medication or contrast.

Screening
Mammogram

A mammogram uses low doses of X-ray radiation to detect and diagnose diseases in the breast, including breast cancer.

Call 770-812-9721 now to schedule a screening mammogram at a convenient location.

Pap Smear

A Pap smear is a screening for cervical cancer that is recommended every three years for who have had three consecutive normal annual pap tests starting at age 18.

Ask your primary care provider or OB/GYN if you need a pap smear.

Prostate Cancer Screening

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. Regular screenings that catch it early improve outcomes.

Men age 55 or older (or age 45 or older with a family history prostate cancer) should have a PSA test.

Skin Cancer Check

Regular skin checks to detect cancers or precancerous spots on your skin are recommended for adults starting at age 18.

While your primary care doctor can perform skin checks, they are typically performed by a dermatologist.
