ethnicity

Are there specific screening recommendations for different ethnic groups?

Yes, screening recommendations can vary based on ethnicity. For example, African American women are advised to begin mammography at an earlier age due to their higher risk of aggressive breast cancer. Similarly, certain ethnic groups might benefit from more frequent HPV screening or genetic counseling for hereditary cancers. Tailoring screening guidelines to ethnic-specific risks enhances early detection and treatment.
