The use of cardiac CT imaging in low-risk patients with chest pain can help to alleviate the patient's concerns, but if the patient has no chest tightness, chest pain and other symptoms, CT screening will not only increase the cost, but also make the patient receive a lot of X-rays.

Five checks should not be omitted.

In addition to the above diagnostic tests, more and more people begin to receive regular physical examinations.

Research has found that many people will take the initiative to ask for MRI, CT, endoscopy and other "big projects", and some doctors recommend a simple and economical, but also very valuable clinical judgment of the means of examination "not cold".

In fact, these basic examinations in physical examination can not only complete the task of disease screening, and even have unique advantages in the diagnosis of some diseases.

Rectal examination

The rectal digital examination, dubbed "one finger Zen skill", is a method of "exposing the original shape" of the disease with only one finger of a surgeon without any instruments. The diagnostic rate of anorectal diseases can reach up to 90%.

Through this examination, anorectal diseases such as hemorrhoids, anal fistula, anal fistula, rectal polyps, rectal tumors, prostate diseases such as prostate hypertrophy, prostate cancer can be detected, about 70% of rectal cancer can be found through rectal digital examination.

Suggestion:

Even without symptoms, people aged over 40 should undergo rectal examination once a year.

Urine routine

This is a simple examination of the urinary system whether or not there is any disease, the nature and extent of the disease, but many people do not attach importance to it.

Stones, urinary tract inflammation, lymphangiopathy and other diseases can be found.

Suggestion:

Even without symptoms, it is usually necessary to screen urine routine once a year. If already had hypertension, diabetes and so on, then should according to the condition, every year regular inspection two or more times.

Fecal analysis

Fecal analysis is the "mirror" of digestive tract diseases. It can understand whether the gastrointestinal tract has bleeding, inflammation, parasitic infection, digestion and absorption function, etc. It is cheap, painless, repeatable and economical.

Fecal examination results, especially repeated occult blood test positive, if excluding hemorrhoids, anal fissure and other causes, often early gastrointestinal tumor signal. A small amount of bleeding is invisible to the naked eye and easy to be considered normal.

Suggestion:

The general population screening every year, 40 years old and older, gastrointestinal cancer incidence is high, more attention should be paid.

A positive occult blood test may be repeated 2 to 3 times. If the occult blood test remains positive, further gastroenteroscopy should be performed for early diagnosis.

Chest radiograph

Chest X-ray examination can be found in the heart, lungs, chest (including ribs, thoracic vertebrae, soft tissue, etc.), thoracic diseases, such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, lung cancer, fractures, pneumothorax, heart disease, mediastinum occupancy and so on.

During the physical examination, many people think that "the chest X-ray is fine every year, check-up is okay", "chest X-ray check-up has radiation, bad health" and so on,** after giving up the chest X-ray examination.

Suggestion:

Chest radiograph is a * * examination. Compared with fluoroscopy and CT, chest X-ray examination suffers less radiation, which is economical, simple and can ensure a higher disease detection rate. It is irreplaceable in the important position of health examination.
