Advanced blood tests have replaced traditional biopsies. While we all know that traditional biopsies are intense, only when you have a close family member or friend can you understand the pain and suffering that goes through the testing and treatment.
While traditional biopsies are essential for a definitive diagnosis, new innovations are transforming cancer care.
At RGCC, we are providing more advanced blood tests that provide a deeper understanding of cancer. Blood tests have played supportive roles in cancer care, but with RGCC, blood tests have become more efficient for cancer treatment.
Deeper insights
Our blood works are more efficient than the traditional methods, just with a simple draw. Here’s why our tests are an evolution from the traditional way:.
- Faster diagnosis: The traditional way would be biopsies, which require a tissue sample and recovery period; unlike biopsy, blood tests are not time-consuming and can be done in a simple draw. This can help with an earlier diagnosis and a potential treatment plan.
- Discomfort: Biopsies can cause pain and discomfort to the patient; blood tests, on the other hand, are comfortable and easy and give the patient peace of mind.
- Monitoring treatment response: Regular and consistent blood draws can give the healthcare provider a clear idea of how to monitor and come up with a treatment plan.
Advanced blood tests for cancer
The usual blood tests are used to detect the presence of tumor markers, indicating the presence of cancer, while at RGCC we have advanced blood tests that are precise and accurate.
We have progressive technologies such as:
- Liquid Biopsy and CTC Tests: RGCC’s liquid biopsies are designed to detect circulating tumor cells (CTC) that are shed from your cancer. This test can potentially identify the presence and characteristics of the cancer, even in the earlier stages. This can help with a successful treatment.
- Advanced genetic testing: Here at RGCC, we just don’t go for the traditional blood test, but the genetic test. This test digs deeper to analyze and understand the genetic and genomic profiles of the cancer to understand and identify the specific cancer type, which is crucial for catering to the specific cancer and deciding the treatment.
Needless to say, it’s important to note that the specific role of RGCC’s blood test may vary depending on the stage and type of cancer. However, the potential for earlier and more precise diagnoses and monitoring offered by these tests is an unprecedented advancement in cancer care.
Treatment planning and monitoring
A cancer diagnosis can be life-altering, and understanding your treatment options can be distressful. The comfortable and less intensive nature of our blood tests can ease the process of getting insights about your cancer.
Consider our tests, such as the Onconomics Plus test, that’s designed specifically to analyze your cancer response to the treatment options, including chemotherapy.
The right treatment for your cancer
Traditional therapies are mostly general, which gives way to precision medicine, a strategy that tailors treatments and therapies to a specific genetic and genomic profile that make up your cancer. Our tests and methods are deeply detailed, precise, and specific to the cancer.
This can help with the therapy and treatment that are targeted for higher success, which also minimizes the risk of ineffective treatments and potential side effects.
Monitoring recurrence
Cancer does not end with the initial treatment; it can always relapse without proper monitoring. It’s important to opt for regular checkups.
RGCC’s blood tests are easy and simple and can help you and your healthcare provider monitor your cancer.
