Only in cancer of the uterine cervix and in cancer of the breast is there evidence of reduced mortality with early treatment. Screening also enables physicians to detect early cancer of the oral cavity or colon. With regard to cancers at other sites, many questions about screening's potential remain to be answered.
只有子宫颈癌和乳腺癌有证据表明早期治疗可降低死亡率。筛查还能使医生检测出口腔或结肠癌的早期病变。关于其他部位的癌症，筛查的潜在作用仍有许多问题有待解答。
