Two-cancer screening refers to cervical cancer and breast cancer screening, of which cervical cancer screening includes TCT and HPV tests. The difference between two-cancer screening and HPV test is that the purpose of screening is different, and two-cancer screening includes HPV test, which has a wider range of screening contents.
HPV refers to human papillomavirus, and HPV test is a pathogenetic test, the purpose of which is to screen whether one is infected with HPV. 2-cancer screening refers to cervical cancer and breast cancer, and the purpose of which is to rule out breast cancer and cervical cancer as early as possible.
In the two cancer screening, the main cause of cervical cancer is the persistent infection of high-risk HPV, and cervical cancer screening mainly includes routine gynecological examination, vaginal or cervical secretion examination, TCT and HPV examination. Therefore, two-cancer screening can usually detect HPV infection.
The two-cancer screening is more extensive compared to HPV examination, and also includes breast cancer screening, such as breast visualization, palpation and breast color ultrasound examination. Through two-cancer screening, the risk of cervical cancer or breast cancer can be effectively reduced.
Women are advised to improve the relevant examinations under the guidance of doctors to effectively prevent diseases and improve the quality of life.
