Link Direct Primary Care is one of a select group of practices in St. Louis to offer the Galleri Blood Test. This blood test screens for over 50+ types of cancer and identifies cancer much earlier than other screenings.
Cancer is often most treatable when caught early. The Galleri test identifies potential cancer at an early stage, enabling earlier intervention and treatment.
The Galleri test is designed to detect multiple types of cancer simultaneously. It looks for signals from over 50 different types of cancers, including common ones like breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate cancer.
Unlike traditional cancer screening methods like biopsies or imaging scans, the Galleri test only requires a simple blood draw. It is a convenient and non-invasive procedure that can be done during a routine visit to our office.
Link Primary is committed to providing cutting-edge, evidence-based medical services. If you are interested in this test, reach out to our team today.
The Galleri blood test is a promising tool for early cancer detection. It analyzes the DNA in your blood to identify genetic mutations and other changes that could indicate the presence of certain types of cancer, even before symptoms begin.
When cells, including cancer cells, finish their life cycle and die, they release fragments of DNA into the bloodstream. These fragments, called cell-free DNA, can be detected in a blood sample using the Galleri test.
Receiving cancer screening results can be a stressful event. But no matter your results, the Link Primary team is here to review the results and clearly explain the next steps.
After taking the Galleri Blood Test, you can expect to receive your test result in approximately two weeks. The results will fall into two categories:
1. No Cancer Signal Detected
2. Cancer Signal Detected
Your results might require additional testing or preventive care in order to lower make a conclusive diagnosis.
