Presentation Documents
Recommended single cancer screening tests save lives, but this technology still only exists for a select number of cancer types. Instead of looking for cancer one-at-a-time, organ-by-organ, multi-cancer early detection technology has the ability to screen individuals for multiple cancers in a cost-effective manner. Adding these new technologies to single-cancer screening has the potential to change the cancer landscape and improve patient outcomes by helping to identify cancers at earlier, more treatable stages on a population scale.
