Diagnostics

Despite the existence of the communist regime, Chinese medicine was inaccessible to the entire population for a long time. But the healthcare reforms initiated in the early 2000s have significantly improved the situation. And today, any resident of the country can use medical services.

Thanks to the positive changes, China has also been able to gain the trust of foreign patients and has now taken one of the leading positions in global medical tourism.

Cervical cancer is one of the most recognizable during diagnosis, even at an early stage. The main types of screening for cervical cancer include:

• Pap test (Pap smear) - allows you to detect abnormal changes in cells on the cervix, which can later turn into a cancerous tumor if they are not treated properly.;
• The HPV (human papillomavirus) test allows you to find a virus that can cause adverse changes in cells.

Tumor markers are soluble proteins (glycoproteins) that are found in the blood, urine, or tissues of patients with certain types of cancer. They are usually produced by tumor cells, but in some cases they can be produced by the body itself in response to developing cancer. The level of cancer markers does not increase in all cancer patients, especially at an early stage of the disease.

The cervix is susceptible to various diseases, primarily inflammatory and oncological. The frequency of their occurrence in the modern world, alas, is quite high.

Fibroids are benign neoplasms that occur in the muscular layer of the uterus. This pathology is typical for mature women. So, almost every fifth patient after 40 is diagnosed with such a disease.

A small and slow-growing uterine fibroid is not life-threatening, but it can lead to unpleasant consequences for the female body, prevent the onset and gestation of pregnancy.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. It is characterized by the appearance of malignant neoplasms on the mucous membrane of the cervix. They, in turn, are formed from a precancerous tumor of the cervix. In the absence of timely treatment, such a tumor not only grows rapidly, but is also capable of subsequently metastasizing to other organs.

Endometrial cancer is most often diagnosed after a woman visits a doctor with characteristic symptoms (swelling, suspicious genital discharge, constant fatigue, high fever). In this case, the specialist conducts a physical examination and examines the medical history, as well as asks about the presence of a hereditary predisposition. At the next stage, more accurate methods of diagnosing cervical cancer are prescribed.

Melanoma or skin cancer is an oncological disease that develops in people regardless of gender and age. The disease arises from melanocyte cells, moles and birthmarks. Melanoma can affect not only the skin, but also the internal organs. The result of the treatment of the disease depends on the timely diagnosis, since in the early stages melanoma is successfully amenable to therapy.

Cervical cancer is an oncological disease of the female reproductive system. The tumor occurs on the mucous membrane, gradually grows and is capable of forming metastases. If urination is disrupted, bleeding occurs that is not related to menstruation, and pain in the lower abdomen, a woman should consult a doctor, as these symptoms may indicate the presence of an ailment in the body.
