Why inherited testing matters

5–10% of colorectal cancers are hereditary. Conditions like Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) can dramatically increase risk. Identifying mutations early allows for personalized prevention and care.

This test is designed for:

  • People with family history of colorectal cancer or polyps
  • Those diagnosed at a young age
  • Families with multiple related cancers
  • Individuals wanting proactive screening

Why This Test Matters

For Patients & Families

  • Identify inherited cancer risks early.

  • Take preventive steps such as enhanced screening or lifestyle changes.

  • Share results with relatives for family‑wide health planning.

For Providers

  • Improve patient care with genetic insights.

  • Guide referrals, screening protocols, and preventive interventions.

  • Support cascade testing for at‑risk family members.

For Proactive Consumers

  • Even without a family history, you may carry mutations that increase cancer risk.

  • Knowledge empowers you to take control of your health.
