We all have a lot of questions on cancer prevention, how to detect cancer early and guidelines for  screening. We also often ignore the needs of persons with disabilities in terms of cancer awareness campaigns and access to screening. Join us as we discuss the following topics in the webinar today  

  • Prevention is better than cure. How can we prevent cancer? How can we reduce the risk of cancer?
  • What are the common cancers?
  • What are the screening guidelines for lung cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, oral cancer, prostate and colorectal cancer?
  • Lifestyle changes to prevent cancer
  • Should you go for screening during COVID?
  • What are the challenges faced by persons with disability?
  • Which screening package should I get?
  • Role of genetic testing?
  • HPV vaccine
  • Role of thermal screening and liquid biopsies
