Why Advanced Screening Matters
Like an iceberg, some tissue changes are easy to see while others may be hidden beneath the surface.
You might notice: a lump or thickened area, difficulty swallowing, a sore that does not heal, or a red or white patch inside your mouth.
You may not see: hidden abnormalities beneath the surface, cancer progression before symptoms develop, the spread to deeper tissues and lymph nodes.
