Oncology Associated Biomarkers
How Does Testing Work?
Oncology-associated biomarker tests can come in many forms. You can get a PAP smear or give a blood, urine, or stool sample. The type of sample you need to provide depends on which form of cancer you are testing for. For instance, the pap smear would only be for women testing for cervical cancer.
Who Should Get Oncology-Associated Biomarker Tests?
In general, everyone should get a cancer risk test. While cancer is more common among older adults, anyone can be diagnosed with cancer. The best way to check for cancer is to get routine cancer risk tests such as PAP smears or prostate screenings.
You should also get an oncology-associated biomarker test if you notice any specific, unusual symptoms such as a lump, weak urine, or breast milk production in men or non-pregnant women. At Better2Know, we have cancer risk tests for bone marrow, bowel, pituitary, cervical, and prostate cancer, so you can test individually for each type of cancer.
Anyone who has family with a history of cancer should get tested more regularly since they are at a higher risk. This includes first-degree relatives such as a mother, father, brother, sister, or children. Those with many relatives who have the same type of cancer should also get tested often.
