Amman: Her Royal Highness Princess Ghida Talal, Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of the King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF) and Center (KHCC), on Sunday inaugurated the KHCC's new Early Detection Center, which has been relocated to its new location in Princess Basma Street in Amman. The facility aims to facilitate public access to early detection, prevention, and diagnosis services, and enhance the chances of detecting cancer in its early stages.

According to Jordan News Agency, the new center aims to provide "comprehensive" early detection, prevention, and diagnosis services in one location, raise awareness of the importance of regular checkups, and encourage community members to take proactive steps to maintain their health. Talking at the launching ceremony, Princess Ghida noted the importance of this step as a "new" achievement for the King Hussein Cancer Foundation and Center, adding that the facility will be a "valuable" addition that will contribute to strengthening cancer control efforts in Jordan.

The center offers early detection and diagnosis services for several types of cancer, including breast tumor screening through mammography, ultrasound, and clinical check, as well as breast cancer diagnosis through ultrasound-guided biopsy, and cervical screening through Pap Smear. Additionally, the center's services provide early detection of colorectal and lung cancer, blood tests, smoking cessation services, and public health education and awareness programs, reflecting a "comprehensive" approach to prevention, early detection, and community health support.
