As far as cancer is concerned, it is pretty obvious that it is one of the deadliest diseases of mankind. Therefore, it is crucial that everyone is educated on various aspects of the disease such as signs and symptoms of cancer, different types of cancer, detection methods, treatment options and the like. Above all, it is most important to know about the different methods to detect cancer at an early stage so as to undergo the right treatment right away.
Significance of NP Screen™
Though there are several methods to diagnose the presence of cancerous cells in the human body, only a few tests can detect their presence at a very early stage wherein they can be destroyed or can be prevented from spreading to the other parts of the body.
NP Screen kit is used to detect the presence of cancerous cells in the nasopharyngeal area (Nasopharyngeal carcinoma). NP Screen™ test is usually performed by a well qualified and trained clinician or physician. He or she uses a trans-oral swab that is simple and patient-friendly so as to collect the cells from the nasopharynx. The procedure is painless and takes just about a minute or two to perform. Patients who are tested using the NP Screen kit do not develop any side effects like infection or bleeding.
The sample collected is generally preserved in room temperature. It is later shipped to the clinical laboratory of NP Screen Inc. In their specialized laboratory, extraction of DNA from these cells is done by trained professionals. The DNA extract is then analyzed for detecting the presence of cancer. The result is given to the patients in a couple of weeks. If any abnormalities are detected, the risk for NPC is considered high. Well, good news is that since this procedure helps in the early detection of cancer, patients have ample chances for successful treatment and survival.
