Our provincial, population-based cancer screening programs reduce the incidence and number of cancer-related deaths in Alberta by screening Albertans for breast, cervical, colorectal and lung cancer. Finding cancer early helps people get treatment when it’s more effective and less costly.
Our screening programs follow evidence-based guidelines. We support healthcare providers and patients to make informed decisions about cancer screening.
We maintain the screeningforlife.ca website, designed to give Albertans the information they need to make informed decisions about cancer screening.
