Screening is a systematic process within public health and clinical practice whereby asymptomatic individuals are identified for early detection of a disease or condition through standardized tests or assessments, distinguishing it from diagnostic procedures by its application to populations presumed to be at risk rather than those exhibiting symptoms.
