COMPLETE BODY CHECK IN TEKNON MEDICAL CENTER


Among the patients of the medical centers, the check-up programs are popular. This is a complete diagnosis of the body that can be carried out during the day. It helps to identify diseases in the early stages in people who do not feel the symptoms of the disease. Check-up diagnostics are very convenient for tourists in Barcelona - they can include a visit to the clinic in their plans and spend their weekends with benefit.

    Complex checkup


    This is a general health diagnosis, when a person takes about 10 tests and is examined by different specialists: oncologist, cardiologist, neurologist, pulmonologist, ophthalmologist, otologist, dentist and other doctors. The set of tests and specialists is selected depending on the gender and age of the patient. So, for women, an examination by a gynecologist and diagnosis of breast cancer is added, and for men - an examination by a urologist and a PSA test to determine prostate cancer.

    Oncological checkup


    The purpose of this program is to examine the body for a tendency to develop cancer or to detect oncology in the early stages. Patients give laboratory tests and a blood test for tumor markers. At the Teknon Medical Center, genetic testing can be done to diagnose stage 0-1. Also, patients are examined by oncologists of various specializations. In women, the emphasis is on diagnosing breast cancer, while in men, on detecting prostate cancer. If there are relatives with other types of cancer, an additional examination is carried out. Regular cancer checkups are also recommended for patients in remission.

    Cardiological checkup


    During this examination, the patient checks the condition of the heart and blood vessels. He or she is prescribed an echocardiogram, echocardiography, cardiac stress test, vascular doppler ultrasonography and other examinations. These test can identify diseases of the cardiovascular system that are asymptomatic. For this reason, passing a cardiac check-up will be useful for people of any age. Smokers and people over 55 years of age are advised to have a cardio checkup every year.

    Sports checkup


    This examination is recommended for men and women who play sports. They will be consulted by a sports medicine specialist. They will also be able to pass a number of tests that assess the condition of the musculoskeletal system and cardiovascular system. Taking into account these results, patients will receive recommendations for safe physical activity.

    Dental checkup


    This is a complete examination of the oral cavity and dental health. The Spanish specialists will not only check, but will also give recommendations on how to prevent gingivitis, periodontal disease and other diseases. Patients with poor dental health will receive treatment recommendations and inquire about such services in advance.
