Early Detection Of Cancer Using Cell Free DNA

Galleri is a multi-cancer early detection test that can be taken as a simple annual blood test and screens for many of the deadliest cancers before they become symptomatic. The Galleri test gives you more control when it comes to cancer. In a clinical study, the Galleri test was able to detect a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer.

At Women’s Global health, we offer the Galleri screening test. We also offer many different Hereditary gene panels.

Hereditary cancer gene testing helps determine if you have a higher risk of developing certain cancers due to inherited genetic changes. It involves analyzing a blood or saliva sample to identify mutations in specific genes that increase cancer risk. This testing can help individuals, families, and healthcare providers make informed decisions about cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment. 

The test looks for mutations in genes that are known to be associated with an increased risk of specific cancers, such as breast, ovarian, and colorectal cancer.

The test helps the physicians provide a personalized plan for early detection and risk reducing surgeries.
