健康檢查應按年齡、病歷及個人風險討論,並非項目越多越好。檢查有其限制;正常結果不能排除所有疾病。Discuss health checks in relation to age, history and personal risks. More tests are not necessarily better. Tests have limitations, and normal results cannot rule out every disease.
與醫護討論甚麼?What can I discuss with a healthcare professional?
預約前可問:檢查的目的及限制是甚麼?需要甚麼準備?費用包括哪些項目?由誰解釋結果?如已有不適,應說明症狀,讓醫護決定是否需要另行診症。Before booking, ask about purpose, limitations, preparation, included costs and who will explain results. Mention current symptoms so a clinician can determine whether a separate consultation is appropriate.
