For individuals with an elevated risk of developing cancer, the Galleri Cancer Screening may be recommended.
From a single blood draw, Galleri screens for over 50 types of cancers, including those not commonly screened for. This test aims to detect the presence of cancer as early as possible, providing crucial information about its location in the body, which helps your primary healthcare provider initiate an effective treatment plan promptly.
Galleri examines more than
DNA regions and over a million specific DNA sites to identify signals shared by various cancers.
It detects cell-free DNA and determines whether it originates from healthy or cancerous cells. Cancer cells exhibit unique methylation patterns that Galleri identifies as cancer signals. These patterns also indicate the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer, guiding the next steps in your care.
