Cancer Screening - Have You Had One Already?

For Yourself and for Your Loved Ones

Is it true that we had better have cancer screening even if we do not have any symptoms?

One out of two Japanese is said to suffer from cancer.
Early detection and early treatment may mitigate burden on your body and reduce medical expenses.
In the early stage of cancer, you will hardly have any symptoms, and regular check-up is effective for early detection.
