• Pre-booking required
• Results: Available within 7-14 days after testing
• Patients will be scheduled for a consultation with a physician to discuss the results.
• Method: Blood sample collection
• Equipment: Electro Interstitial Scan (EIS) uses bio-electro impedance technology to assess cellular function in different organs, identifying abnormalities and potential risks based on physiological principles.
• Note: Patients with metal implants are not eligible for EIS scanning.
• Foreign nationals can access the service with a passport for identification.

What is Cancer?

Cancer is abnormal tissue growth caused by mutations in normal cells, leading to uncontrolled cell division and growth that bypasses the immune system.

Benefits of Cancer Screening

• Detects cancer risk factors before cancer cells develop.
• Non-invasive: No tissue samples are taken.
• Clear results provide peace of mind, reducing anxiety for individuals concerned about potential symptoms.
• Even if risks are found, it doesn’t confirm cancer; a doctor will advise on preventive actions and additional tests if needed.
• Early detection increases treatment success rates, reducing the risk of fatality.

---

Cancer Screening vs. Cancer Testing

• Cancer Screening: Identifies risk indicators without tissue sampling. It’s the first step to assess potential risks.
• Cancer Testing: Uses more detailed diagnostic procedures, including biopsy, to confirm the presence of cancer.

---

Benign Tumors vs. Malignant Tumors (Cancer)

• Benign Tumor: Abnormal but non-invasive growth that doesn't spread to other parts of the body. It is generally harmless unless it grows large enough to affect organ function. Fluid-filled tumors are called cysts.
• Malignant Tumor (Cancer): Invasive tumor with abnormal cell division that spreads to other parts of the body, disrupting organ function.

---

Important Notes

• Notify the staff of any existing medical conditions before the test.
