Cancer Prognosis

People having cancer are concerned about what the future holds. A prognosis gives an idea of the likely course and outcome of a disease - recovery, path or recurrence (return of the cancer).

Factors Effecting Cancer Prognosis
Some factors are the type and location of the cancer, the stage of the disease (i.e the spread), and its grade (how abnormal the cancer cells look and how quickly the cancer is likely to grow and spread).

Cancer Prognosis Using PrognostiCheck®
Biometric Scoring System' for prognosis based upon a noninvasive diagnostic test that objectively, accurately and immediately illustrates how serious a disease condition is and if treatment is working (so it can be improved if possible). "The system is based upon the discovery that the health of cell membranes reflects the overall health of the patient and detects any disease condition before lab studies; imaging techniques and physical examination can see them".

"The information can be used to measure the benefits of treatment and determine recovery. The test electrically illustrates the cell membrane looking 'up-stream' in the process of physiology to a level that occurs earlier than usual tests. By providing better information sooner the results can be used by patients, families and physicians to make superior healthcare decisions in any disease condition including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, pulmonary disorders, hepatitis and more."

Is it helpful to know the Cancer Prognosis?
Yes. PrognostiCheck^® tells the story of the cells. Understanding cancer and what to expect can help patients, their loved ones and caregiver plan treatment, think about lifestyle changes, and make decisions about their quality of life and finances.
