Screen for multiple cancers with a single blood test
How the Test Works
The Galleri® test screens your blood sample (2 tubes of blood) and identifies DNA fragments shed into the blood by developing cancers. Although there are many types of cancer, these DNA fragments act like a unique ‘fingerprint’ often associated with cancer

Through your healthcare provider; a prescription is required
Step 2: Complete Your Blood Draw

Step 3: Receive Your Results
