The Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) test is a simple blood test that can detect signs of more than 50 types of cancer by analyzing tiny fragments of DNA in your blood. It looks for changes commonly linked to cancer, even before symptoms appear, helping identify cancer early when treatment is more effective.

Who Should be Tested?
People who are 50 years or older, especially those with a family history of cancer, may benefit from multi-cancer screening. It’s also recommended for individuals at higher risk due to lifestyle, environmental exposure, or genetic factors. However, anyone concerned about cancer or interested in proactive health monitoring should speak with a healthcare provider to see if testing is appropriate.
