More Details

Additional information

Cancer Carrier Screening is designed to identify inherited genetic variants that may increase an individual’s lifetime risk of developing specific cancers.

While most cancers occur sporadically, some are linked to hereditary genetic changes that can be passed from one generation to another. Individuals with a strong family history of cancer, multiple affected relatives, early-onset cancer, or certain cancer patterns may benefit from hereditary cancer risk assessment.

Understanding inherited cancer risk can support informed discussions with healthcare providers regarding surveillance, prevention strategies, family testing, and future healthcare planning.

At Mass Diagnostics, hereditary cancer screening is coordinated through trusted international partner laboratories with expertise in cancer genetics. Our team supports patients and physicians throughout the testing journey, from selecting the appropriate testing route to sample collection, laboratory coordination, and report delivery.
