What is a health screening check?

A practical, general-information answer for international patients considering medical care in Shanghai.

Answer

A health screening visit uses selected tests to look for risk factors or early signs in people who may not have a confirmed diagnosis. The clinician decides which tests fit the person’s age, history and symptoms; screening does not replace evaluation of new symptoms.
