CANCER 30 GENE PANEL

Overview

All of us have a 1 in 2 lifetime risk of cancer, but some common cancers – breast, melanoma, pancreatic, prostate and ovarian – are known to occur more frequently in families, passing from one generation to the next. This is because certain gene mutations can be inherited.

Perhaps the most commonly talked about are the BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 genes, where mutations can indicate increased risk of developing breast, melanoma, pancreatic, prostate and ovarian cancers.

The 30-gene Pan Cancer Panel test from Everything Genetic, examines BRCA1 and BRCA2 and an additional 28 genes which can also indicate risk in the areas of uterine, colorectal (bowel) and stomach cancer.

Why have this test?

Knowing you have a genetic mutation enables you to make sure you have the appropriate regular screening and investigations. Many mutations are known to be hereditary; if you have a mutation, there is a 50% chance that your siblings and children will have it too.

What genes are tested?

Genes APC, ATM, BAP1, BARD1, BMPR1A, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDH1, CDK4*, CDKN2A(p14ARF), CDKN2A(p16INK4a), CHEK2, EPCAM*, GREM1*, MITF*, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, MUTYH, NBN, PALB2, PMS2*, POLD1*, POLE*, PTEN, RAD51C, RAD51D, SMAD4, STK11, TP53.

What does the test involve?

This test is a simple saliva test that you can do in the clinic on the day of your assessment, or in your own home of you prefer – we do not need a blood sample. If you choose to add this test after your health assessment, you will receive a kit in the post with clear instructions on taking your sample, together with all the paperwork you need to sign and post to Everything Genetic.

How long does reporting take?

Once your sample is received at the US laboratory, it will be sequenced, and your genes analysed. A report is then generated, usually within 5 weeks of the laboratory receiving your sample.

How will I get my results?

Your Preventicum doctor will explain the process in your consultation, and you will also have a counselling session with a consultant (usually the day after your Preventicum assessment) so you understand this fully before consenting for the test.

Once your genes have been analysed, you will be sent your results from Preventicum. If there are any positive findings you will also be contacted by a Consultant Geneticist to discuss these, the implications, and next steps. If the results are negative but you still wish to discuss these further, a consultation can be arranged at no extra charge.

Discussing your results with a geneticist and Preventicum doctor will help you to:

  • Understand your risks
  • Monitor your health
  • Consider your lifestyle or diet
  • Protect your family

MUSCULOSKELETAL MOVEMENT SCREEN AND STRENGTH & CONDITIONING COACHING

Overview

Preventicum have partnered with Pure Sports Medicine (PSM), world-class sport and exercise medicine specialists to offer a musculoskeletal movement screen together with strength and conditioning coaching. PSM’s team will work with you to prevent, diagnose, treat and manage any injuries, bringing a multi-disciplinary, team-based approach to your health management.

Why have this test?

  • If you have an existing injury such as back or joint pain.
  • You want to improve or start a new exercise regime.
  • You are trying to improve your lifestyle.

What are the benefits of this screen?

  • Helps you to prevent injury and become injury resistant
  • Improve your ability to resist ailments
  • Improve and optimise your performance in your chosen sport

What can I expect?

This hour-long session starts with a specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist consultation to determine injuries, exercise history and video gait analysis. All sessions are tailored to the individual and look at relevant lifestyle factors with a clinical assessment of any injuries.

Following this, you will meet a strength and conditioning coach for a full body movement screen and in-depth strength assessment, using a mix of gym equipment, clinical tests, and hand-held strength testing for specific muscle groups.

You will leave with a management plan including any recommendations for further treatment and a letter from your physiotherapist, detailing your findings from the day will be included in your Preventicum final report.

ESSENTIAL

Consultation with a Preventicum doctor
Lasting up to 50 minutes, you will have the opportunity to discuss your current health, medical and family history and any concerns you may have.

Detailed physical examination with a Preventicum doctor
An examination of the eyes, ears, mouth, throat, heart, lungs, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, gastrointestinal system and skin. In men we examine the groin, testes and prostate* (over 50) and in women we perform a breast examination and gynaecological examination and smear if required.*
*With consent and chaperone if requested.

Vital observations
Height, weight, BMI, resting heart rate, blood pressure

Over 45 blood tests and urine analysis
Including a full blood count, comprehensive cholesterol profile, liver and kidney function tests, bone profile, iron studies, inflammatory markers, thyroid function in women, HbA1c (diabetes test), vitamin D, and PSA on men over 50 years.

Ultrasound examinations
We scan the carotid arteries, abdominal aorta, liver, gallbladder, biliary tree, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, bladder, uterus and ovaries in women and the prostate in men.

Echocardiogram
A non-invasive ultrasound examination using high-frequency sound waves to create detailed pictures of your heart. We look at the structure and function of your heart including the valves and can record dynamic changes within this moving organ to see how the heart is managing blood flow around the body.

Resting electrocardiogram (ECG)
ECG is used in diagnosing many electrical heart abnormalities and can help to show if there is the possibility of significant coronary artery disease.

Spirometry (lung function test)
Spirometry is used to determine lung function and to help to detect lung disease.

Body Composition Analysis
The InBody 720 provides a detailed, highly accurate map of body composition, including visceral fat, using 30 impedance measurements.

Audiometry (hearing test)
This test measures the sensitivity of your hearing across a range of different frequencies.

Tonometry (glaucoma/eye test)
