Cancer Screening

Early Detection Saves Lives at Cancer Care Institute

At Cancer Care Institute in Los Angeles, CA, we believe that the most powerful tool in the fight against cancer is early detection. Under the expert care of Dr. Youram Nassir, a board-certified specialist in Internal Medicine, Medical Oncology, and Hematology, our team provides comprehensive cancer screening services to identify potential health concerns before symptoms develop—when treatment is most effective.

Why Cancer Screening Is So Important

Many cancers can grow silently for years before showing noticeable symptoms. Through routine cancer screenings, it’s possible to detect cancer in its earliest and most treatable stages—helping to improve survival rates, reduce complications, and protect your long-term health.

At Cancer Care Institute, we take a personalized, preventive approach, tailoring each screening plan based on your age, medical history, genetic risk factors, and lifestyle.

Types of Cancer Screenings We Offer

Our practice provides comprehensive cancer screening options to help detect a wide range of cancers early, including:

• Breast Cancer Screening (Mammograms) Detecting breast cancer early with mammography can significantly improve treatment success.
• Colorectal Cancer Screening (Colonoscopy or Stool Tests) Early screening can help prevent colon cancer by identifying and removing polyps before they become cancerous.
• Prostate Cancer Screening (PSA Testing) A simple blood test that can detect early signs of prostate cancer in men.
• Lung Cancer Screening (Low-Dose CT Scan) Recommended for individuals with a history of heavy smoking or long-term exposure to harmful substances.
• Cervical Cancer Screening (Pap Test and HPV Test) These screenings can detect precancerous changes in cervical cells before cancer develops.
• Skin Cancer Screening Regular skin exams help identify unusual moles or lesions that may indicate melanoma or other skin cancers.
• Blood Tests and Hematologic Screenings For patients at risk of blood-related cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma.

Who Should Get Screened for Cancer?

Cancer screening recommendations vary based on your age, gender, family history, and risk factors. In general, screenings are recommended for:

• Adults over the age of 40
• Individuals with a family history of cancer
• People who smoke or have a history of tobacco use
