NP Screen specializes in the early detection of nasopharyngeal cancer. The main purpose being to improve the survival chances of individuals who are at risk for NPC worldwide. The NP screen is a proprietary genetic test used to try and help prevent cancer with regular screenings. Symptoms of cancer
Cancer is a very deadly disease and spreads like wild fire. There are no obvious symptoms of cancer and the only way to catch it in its early stages is by screening. People need to be aware of any bodily changes. Changes in toilet habits and if your body is behavior is changing, you should have yourself checked immediately.
Treatment for cancer
There are only a few methods by which cancer can be treated. There is no guaranteed cure for cancer. If caught in the very early stages there is a possibility to stop it from spreading. However if the cancer has already spread then the treatment is merely to try and slow down the cancer from spreading. In the initial stages radio therapy is used as treatment for cancer. In a more advanced stage the radio therapy is combined with chemo therapy. Surgery is effective for tumours and abnormal growths.
Significance of NP Screen
The NP Screen kit helps to detect if there are cancerous cells in the nasopharyngeal area. The test is performed by a physician who is well trained and qualified in the procedure. A trans-oral swab is used to collect the cells from the nasopharynx. The test is a painless and very simple procedure. It has no side effects and no risk of causing infections either. The sample that is collected is kept at room temperature and later sent to the laboratory where the DNA is extracted from the cells. The DNA extracted is analyzed to detect if there is any presence of cancer cells. The procedure results are usually ready in a few weeks. With early treatment the patients have a better chance of survival.
