WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER CANCER SCREENING?
Cancer is a ticking time bomb globally. Every year about 18 million women and men are diagnosed with various cancers including carcinomas, sarcomas, neuroendocrine tumors, melanomas. These cancers are also associated with about 9 million deaths. This translates into roughly 34 cancer cases being detected and 18 cancer related deaths every minute. Annually, these cancers contribute to:
~4.1
Million newly diagnosed cases and 1.8 million deaths in Europe (including the UK).
~2.1
Million newly diagnosed cases and 550,000 deaths in the US.
~1.2
Million newly diagnosed cases and 760,000 deaths in India.
Due to changes in lifestyle as well as other risk factors, these numbers are stated to increase in the future. Detecting Cancer Early is vital to saving lives. Studies have shown that early detection of cancer improves survival rates.
BODYCHECKUP CANCER CHECK IS A BLOOD TEST THAT CAN ENABLE EARLY DETECTION OF MULTIPLE CANCERS IN ASYMPTOMATIC INDIVIDUALS.
WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER THE TEST?
- Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) and their clusters are present in the blood of almost all cancer patients and are undetectable even in seemingly healthy individuals.
- Bodycheckup Cancer Check technology to detect and characterise CTCs has been proven through extensive clinical validations involving more than 40,000 participants.
- The test is a paradigm shift in cancer screening, as it does not involve radiation or invasive procedures. The test is performed at our world-class laboratory, which meets and exceeds all national and international standards.
