How does EarlyCDT–Lung work?
EarlyCDT–Lungis a blood test drawn at the physician’s office or at an off-site draw station. The sample is sent for testing to Oncimmune’s laboratory located in the Metro Kansas City area. The blood sample is analyzed on a multi–antigen panel. During the process, highly–qualified and thoroughly–trained technicians perform numerous steps to measure the presence of autoantibodies that have been associated with cancer antigens. The antibodies are produced by the immune system in the earliest stages of the disease. The presence of these autoantibodies can be used to aid in the early detection of cancer. Your healthcare provider will receive a comprehensive report of your test results in about one week.
