Monitoring cancer
Optimally by monitoring for early signs of recurrence or changes in the cancer, the treatment is always one step ahead of the cancer. Cancertrack™ ensures real-time monitoring to detect genetic changes in the tumour at an early stage. Clinically relevant mutations can thereby be monitored, or medication can be changed if necessary.
In the event of a positive/ actionable result then follow up investigations or therapy may be required. These may not be covered by the NHS or health insurance providers and so as a support, Datar Cancer Genetics can provide an oncologist at a separate cost if necessary.
