From Result to Action

Turn data into action

Every finding in your report comes with a concrete next step. Here's what your results can unlock.

Start Targeted Cancer Screening

Potentially life-saving

Triggered by: Pathogenic or high-risk variant detected

15 yrs

earlier detection possible

Click to collapse

What this result reveals:

Which specific cancer types your variant predisposes you to, your lifetime risk percentage versus the general population, and the exact screening protocol recommended by international guidelines for your variant.

Begin enhanced surveillance: annual MRI, colonoscopy, or dermatology check based on your specific variant

Share your result with first-degree relatives — they carry a 50% chance of the same variant

Discuss with your GP which national screening programmes you may qualify for early entry

Stage 1 cancer has a 95%+ survival rate. Genetics can give you a 10–15 year head start on standard screening ages.

Implement Chemoprevention

BRCA-specific

Triggered by: BRCA1/2, Lynch, or TP53 variant confirmed

Every action protocol above is included in your digital report, reviewed by a specialist.

Is This Test Right for You?

Who benefits most

Family history of cancer

A parent, sibling, or grandparent was diagnosed. You want to know your hereditary risk before any symptoms appear — and get a screening head-start.

Proactive preventive health seeker

No alarming family history, but you understand that early detection changes outcomes. This test guides your screening decisions with data, not assumptions.

Approaching a standard screening age

NHS or national programmes start at 50–60. Elevated genetic risk may qualify you for — and significantly benefit from — starting a decade earlier.
