Elementary Cancer Precaution

According to the state health insurance laws, elementary cancer precaution and/or early cancer diagnosis consists of:

  • starting at the age of 20:  cervcal smear examination in a special laboratory as well as a thorough gynaecological palpation of uterus, ovary, fallopian tube, pelvis and vagina. 
  • starting at the age of 30: additional palpation of mammary glands
  • starting at the age of 45: additional examination of intestinal system

Our offer of   "Cancer Precaution Plus" makes early diagnosis even more effective to meet the requirements of many women.

  • Ultrasonic examination via the vagina (Vaginal Sonography)
    The quality of the pictures of the pelvis achieved using this method are much better. Any changes of mucous membranes of the uterus ,as well as tumors or cysts of the uterus and fallopian tubes that are not discovered by palpation at this stage can be recognized in the early stages.
