Those who benefit most from regular Sheep Sorel testing include adults above 40, people with sedentary lifestyles or BMI above 25, those managing chronic conditions, smokers, and anyone whose previous result was borderline. Early detection through regular testing in Bengaluru is consistently more cost-effective than treating advanced disease.
