Cancer screening is the best way to catch cancer before symptoms appear and when it’s easier to treat. It’s #CancerScreenWeek—a reminder to talk to your doctor to learn about what cancer screening is recommended for you. Learn more: go.nih.gov/LUvTRWH

Over the past 45 years, the majority of deaths averted from breast, cervical, colorectal, lung, and prostate cancer were due to prevention and screening, rather than treatment advances, National Cancer Institute researchers have found. go.nih.gov/MIC00oU

A new National Cancer Institute modeling study shows that cancer prevention and screening were the main contributors to reducing mortality from five cancers over the past 45 years. The contribution of each intervention varied by cancer site. Learn more: go.nih.gov/MIC00oU

There is a strong scientific consensus that alcohol drinking can cause several types of cancer. The evidence indicates that the more alcohol a person drinks, the higher the risk of developing an alcohol-associated cancer. bit.ly/3bfM7IA

A 2023 National Cancer Institute study found most Americans are unaware of the association between alcohol and cancer risk. Alcoholic drinks contain ethanol, a known carcinogen, and there are several ways in which it may cause cancer. bit.ly/3ktrcu2
