WE PROVIDE PARENTS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THEY NEED TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS IN THE FUTURE
PreSENTIA offers an extensive portfolio of 19 hereditary cancer test panels. Each panel focuses on a set of genes that determine someone’s chances of developing a specific cancer in the future. The genetic changes in the genes that could cause cancer are inherited from parents to their children, and are present from birth.
Knowing that a person carries one of these genetic mutations can help them take preventative measures and plan a more informed clinical management. As a result, early detection of cancer can be achieved – which increases the chances of successful treatment – or prevention.
We also carry out NIPT blood testing and carrier screening.
WHAT DOES CANCER SCREENING INCLUDE?
20-minute appointment (40 minutes for couples)
Samples using a buccal swab
A scan report
All digital images emailed after the scan for free
WHY DO WE RECOMMEND CANCER SCREENING?
Identifying the genetic change that could cause cancer in the future is useful for people with cancer in their family history, and for people suspected of having a hereditary form of cancer. This knowledge can help with better medical planning, avoiding risk factors and informing family members of their risk.
Family members with cancer in the same side of the family
Multiple cancers in the same family member
Family members with early cancer onset
Family members with rare cancer types
A family member that has been diagnosed with a genetic mutation that has cancer susceptibility
PEOPLE WHO MIGHT BENEFIT FROM GENETIC TESTING ARE THOSE WHO HAVE:
Personal or family history of a hereditary cancer syndrome
If you are considering cancer screening, we would be more than happy to walk you through the steps.
