Screening shines a light on your health,
so you can keep doing what you love
Our annual screening program gives you a comprehensive
and accurate prediction of your health status.
Why Screen?
Screening helps you identify previously unrecognised health risks. Finding them at an early stage allows you to modify your lifestyle and prevent lifestyle diseases. In the case of cancers, finding them early gives you the best chance of receiving effective treatment.

Screening vs Diagnosis
A Screening Test
Is for healthy, asymptomatic people and can be done voluntarily. It's used to identify a problem at an early stage making treatment easier.
A Diagnostic Test
Is a medical test for someone who displays the symptoms of a sickness, often prescribed by a medical practitioner. It can help confirm a suspected condition that came to light during screening.
Why is early detection important?
Japan is a great example of why early detection works. Life expectancy in Japan is the longest in the world, thanks in part to their tradition of periodic screening. Cancers in Japan are usually detected at an early stage, giving those diagnosed with it the best chance at receiving effective treatment.
AURA is modelled after this Japanese system of periodic screening.

When should I consider screening?
The best time to screen is when you're healthy, but if you have a family history of cancer it's better to start earlier. Screening is also recommended if you have a stressful and busy lifestyle, with frequent business trips, a lack of sleep, and a lack of exercise. People with lifestyle factors like being overweight, smoking or excessive alcohol consumption can benefit greatly from screening.
