Screening is the process of early diagnosis of a disease, ie identification of disease or risk factors for the disease in its pre-symptomatic or pre-clinical stage. There are several well-known mass screening programs, eg cervical cancer screening (Pap smear). Screening is useful when diagnosis of a disease earlier than it would usually have been detected improves the outcome.
