Interview with the head of the GHC Genetics laboratory in Téma magazine

For years, colonoscopy has been one of the most effective methods for detecting colorectal cancer, but many patients fear the procedure and put off getting tested. Now, however, a new alternative is available: genetic testing using a blood sample. What does the future hold for this approach in conjunction with artificial intelligence? Renáta Michalovská, head of our molecular genetics and microbiology laboratory, discusses this in the latest issue of the weekly magazine Téma.

GHC Genetics has introduced two new non-invasive screening tests, PulmoScreen and ColonScreen, which can detect serious diseases before they manifest themselves. These are blood screening tests for lung cancer and colorectal cancer. Both tests are based on the so-called analysis of DNA methylation in a blood sample and represent a modern, fast, and highly accessible form of prevention that can detect very early pathological changes in cells that later lead to the development of cancerous growths. By introducing these two screening tests, we are strengthening our position in the field of personalized and predictive medicine. We are putting into practice methods that were only available in research a few years ago. Thanks to them, we can help detect the disease at a stage when treatment is most effective, and patients have the best chance of a full recovery.
