Lower the age for invites to regular mammograms to 30
We think the recommended age for routine mammograms should be lowered from 50 to 30. We believe this change could increase early detection, offer better health outcomes, and save countless lives
Fund screening of prostate cancer for all men over 50, every 2 years
Fund screening for prostate cancer for all men over 50 years of age every 2 years. Men with higher PSA levels, higher risk or family history should be screened more frequently. Men over 70 years of age should be monitored on a case by case basis.
Fund cardiac screening at age 14 years and cardiac awareness programme
Fund population cardiac screening for every young person when they reach age 14 years. The screening should be undertaken with a review of family history and electrocardiogram (ECG) followed up where necessary with echocardiogram (heart scan).
Introduce a screening programme for prostate cancer, starting with high-risk men
We are calling on the Government to reassess the UK National Screening Committee’s (UK NSC) draft recommendation not to offer prostate cancer screening to anyone except men with BRCA1/2 genetic variants, and to introduce screening for all high-risk men.
