Cancer Screenings Save Lives

The earlier we catch cancer, the better we can treat it. As part of preventive care, screenings identify the most common types of cancer in the early stages or before they have a chance to take hold.

Schedule a screening today to safeguard your health. Many of them can be performed in your doctor’s office, and the below screenings marked with an asterisk* can be scheduled by calling us at 800-847-5801. Learn more about the screenings and assessments our teams perform.

Breast Cancer*

Breast Cancer Screenings

Screening mammograms use the most advanced technology available to check for cancer. Women with a family history of breast cancer should begin screening between age 40 and 44. Women 45 to 54 with an average risk should be screened annually. After 55, discuss a screening plan with your doctor.

Colon Cancer*

Colon Cancer Screenings

Adults ages 45 to 75 should be screened for colon cancer. Adults 76 to 85 should discuss screening with their physician. The Affordable Care Act mandates that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and most health insurance plans cover preventive tests like colonoscopies.

Genetic Cancer

Genetic Cancer Assessments

We offer genetic cancer assessments for high-risk individuals. These assessments screen for multiple types of hereditary cancers, including breast, ovarian, colon, pancreatic, melanoma and endocrine cancers.

Lung Cancer*

Lung Cancer Screenings

If you are a current or former smoker between 50 and 80 years old, a quick and easy computed tomography (CT) lung cancer screening can save your life. We offer low-dose CT scans, the gold standard in detecting early-stage lung cancer.

Skin Cancer

Skin Cancer Screenings

Catching skin cancer early helps ensure the best chance for a full recovery. Perform frequent self-checks and report changes to your doctor. If needed, our comprehensive skin cancer screenings may include minimally invasive tissue biopsies and same-day test results when possible.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer Screenings

Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in men. African American men and those with a family history of prostate cancer should begin screening at age 45. Men who are not African American and don’t have a family history of cancer should begin screening at age 50.

Cervical Cancer

Cervical Cancer Screenings

Cervical cancer often causes no symptoms, which is why screening is so important. For women ages 21 to 29, a Pap smear is recommended every one to three years. For women between 30 and 65, a Pap smear and HPV test is recommended every five years.

Comprehensive Cancer Treatment and Services

Our dedicated Chicago oncologists and cancer care teams work closely together to develop treatment plans for all types of cancer — including cancer of the breast, prostate, colon, lung and blood — with immune-system-boosting therapies, advanced radiation therapy and support at every stage.
