Frequently Asked Questions

Can a blood test detect all cancers?
No single blood test can detect all cancers. Tumor markers and newer multi-cancer early detection tests show promise but have limitations.
What are common tumor markers?
Common markers include PSA (prostate), CA-125 (ovarian), CEA (colorectal), and AFP (liver).
Do I need a doctor's referral to order a lab test?
No. Many labs offer direct-to-consumer testing that allows you to order tests online without a doctor's referral.
