Cancer Proactive Genetic Health Screen

About 1 in 20 people carry a serious health related genetic risk, but most of us don’t know it.

For healthy adults who wish to gain important, medically actionable insights based on their DNA,
geneDecode offers proactive genetic testing from a CAP and CLIA accredited laboratory in San Francisco, United States.

What is CANCER PROACTIVE GENETIC HEALTH SCREEN

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
This test will give you insights into important health risks you may—or may not—have based on genetic variants in your DNA. Testing more than 61 different genes and more than 30 diseases, can help guiding preventive measures to keep you healthy.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR HEREDITARY TEST RESULTS

The test helps uncover what your DNA says about your health by analyzing more than 61 genes related
to a wide range of important health conditions. Understanding your genetic risks can help you and
your doctor take steps to protect your health and build a proactive—and personalized—plan focused
on prevention.

POSITIVE RESULTS

  • If you receive a positive test result, this means that your test found a genetic change that may increase your risk of developing a specific medical condition.
  • Working with your clinician, you can implement prevention strategies to help reduce your risk.
  • Since genetic information is shared within families, you may also want to discuss the possible
    implications for other members of your family.
  • You may also receive a result that indicates that you carry a genetic change that does not
    increase your own risk of developing a specific medical condition, but that may be passed
    within your family (also known as carrier status).

NEGATIVE RESULTS

  • A negative result means that you do not have a clearly increased genetic risk for the conditions tested on this panel, based on current knowledge.
  • Even with a negative genetic test result, proactive medical care and a healthy lifestyle are essential to your overall well-being and longevity.
