Kursk oncologists saved more than 100 people during the year thanks to field examinations

As part of the work of field teams, doctors examined almost 1,000 people and identified 107 suspicions of the pathological process. All patients with suspicion are required to undergo further examination in the oncology center, and in case of confirmation of the diagnosis receive free treatment.

The center thanked the management and staff of district hospitals for organizing workplaces and assistance in work. As noted by doctors, the combined efforts managed to save more than 100 people. In addition, doctors expressed gratitude to patients for their attentive attitude to health and timely treatment.

Experts recalled that the insidiousness of oncology is the absence of symptoms in the early stages. Doctors urged not to wait for the appearance of pain, but to undergo preventive examinations and medical examinations annually, since most of the identified cases are accidental findings during dispensary observation. The schedule of field inspections for 2027 will be published on the official resources of the center next year.
