Dr. Charles Mok explains which cancer screenings work best for different organs: CT for lungs, colonoscopy or Cologuard for colon, mammography for breast. He also covers cancers without established screening tests, like pancreatic and ovarian.
CAT scan of the chest may be theoretically more sensitive for lung cancer than mri, so that'd be one advantage. Colonoscopy. Theoretically, you'd pick up a tumor on mri, but it's probably a little bit bigger because the colon is kind of a hollow organ. So a colonoscopy or the cologuard, fecal tests are more appropriate. Mammogram for breast cancer or other similar services are going to be more sensitive. A skin exam by your doctor, your dermatologist, looking for skin cancer, and this is looking for epithelial and solid based tumors that we do not have. Any screening test, for example, would be brain cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, sarcomas, which are cancer of the bone and the soft tissues, ovarian cancer.
