Early Detection Can Save Your Life
Checking for cancer, or for abnormal cells that may become cancer, even when you have no symptoms is a good idea, especially when you reach a certain age or when you have a family history of cancer. When cancer is detected early, it is typically more treatable — and, ultimately, early detection may reduce your chances of dying from cancer. Why wait, when a cancer screening at Chester County Hospital is close, convenient and could save your life?
We bring the full power of Penn Medicine and the world’s most advanced treatments from the Abramson Cancer Center home to you.

Colon Cancer Screening
Colon cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the United States, but there is a 90% chance it can be cured if caught early. Screening, early detection and advances in treatment have improved outcomes, resulting in more than one million colorectal cancer survivors in the United States today. A colonoscopy can help your doctor detect it early enough to cure it.
If you are 50 years old or older, have a family history of colon cancer, don’t wait a minute longer.
Lung Cancer Screening
A Low-Dose CT Scan (LDCT), a technique pioneered by Penn Medicine, has been found to be the most reliable way to detect lung cancer at its earliest, most treatable stage. Our team of experts in thoracic surgery, pulmonary medicine, medical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology and radiology are using this innovative screening to detect and treat lung cancer earlier. With lung screenings available at various locations throughout Chester County, we make it easy and convenient for you to take this important step for your health.
If you’re between the ages of 55 and 77 and you smoke or have a family history of lung cancer, schedule your screening today.
