This screening includes a mammogram and a clinical breast exam. You may be eligible for this screening if you’re 40+ years old and haven’t received a mammogram in the past 12 months.
Doctors recommend that women get a Pap smear starting at age 21. If your results are normal, you’ll likely only need one every three to five years depending on your age. You may be eligible for this screening if you’re 21 – 65 years old.
You’ll receive a noninvasive fecal immunochemical test (FIT) to screen your stool in the privacy of your home. You may be eligible for this screening if you’re 45+ years old.
The clinician will feel for any lumps on your neck, lips, gums, and cheeks during this physical exam, and may also examine your nose, mouth, throat, and tongue for any abnormalities. You may be eligible for this screening if you’re 18+ years old.
You may be eligible for this screening if you’re 50 – 80 years old and have a history of smoking. Your lungs will be scanned using a low-dose computed tomography.
We’re offering prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests for men 45+. This test measures the level of PSA — a substance made by the prostate — in your blood.
A clinician will check your skin for moles, birthmarks, or any other marks that have an unusual color, size, shape, or texture. You may be eligible for skin cancer screening if you’re 18+ years old.
“In 2023, we performed a total of 2,376 screenings on more than 950 patients. From Pittsburgh to Erie and everywhere in between, we hope everyone eligible will take advantage of these easily accessible opportunities.”
— Dr. James Betler, AHN cancer screening program director
