What is Comprehensive Cancer Care?
Prevention
Cancer is not a single disease but a group of related diseases. Many things in our genes, our lifestyle, and the environment around us may increase or decrease the risk of getting cancer.
Early Detection
Siemens Healthineers offers a variety of assays used as an aide in detection and management to help your lab deliver results to physicians and their patient when they’re needed most.*
Diagnosis and Treatment
After a cancer diagnosis and treatment plan is determined by your doctor, additional testing can aide in monitoring treatment of the disease.*
Risk Factors associated with cancer
Research has shown that certain risk factors may increase a person’s chances of developing cancer. These include exposure to chemicals or other substances, as well as certain behaviors. They also include things people cannot control, like age and family history.
Diabetes
People with type 2 diabetes (the most common form) are twice as likely to develop liver or pancreatic cancer. They also run a higher-than-normal risk of developing colon, bladder and breast cancer.
