Galleri Cancer Screening in Troy, Mi

We know that thinking about cancer can bring up anxiety, fear, or even denial — it’s common for people to say, “It could never happen to me.” 

But the truth is, early screening isn’t about living in fear; it’s about empowering yourself with knowledge. At Restoration Healthcare, we’re here to guide you with compassion, giving you the tools to take control of your health and catch potential issues early, when treatment options and outcomes are often far better. We’ve paired the best in integrative oncology with advanced Galleri cancer screening to give you comprehensive cancer support in Troy.

Why Early Cancer Detection Matters

At Restoration Healthcare, we believe the most important cancer is the one you or your loved one may have — and finding it early makes all the difference.

  • Many cancers show no symptoms until they’re in later stages, when treatment options are fewer and outcomes are often poorer.
  • Today’s standard screening tests (like mammograms, colonoscopies, and PSA tests) cover only a small portion of cancers — just 1 in 4 diagnosed cancers in patients over 50.
  • Roughly 3 out of 4 cancer deaths are caused by cancers that don’t have routine screening options.*
  • When cancer is detected early, before it spreads, the 5-year survival rate is about 4 times higher compared to late-stage diagnoses.

What Is Multi-Cancer Early Detection?

Multi-cancer early detection (MCED) offers a groundbreaking way to proactively screen for a common cancer signal across many types of cancer — all at once. This greatly increases the chance of finding cancers early, even those without existing screening guidelines.

About the Galleri Test

The Galleri test is a cutting-edge multi-cancer early detection (MCED) screening tool designed to look for a cancer signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer — many of which currently have no standard screening options.** By offering early detection, Galleri gives patients the chance to access care when there may be more treatment choices and a better chance for positive outcomes. 

The process is simple: a routine blood draw during your wellness visit is all it takes to complete the test. If a cancer signal is found, Galleri goes a step further by predicting where in the body the signal likely originated, giving doctors vital information for next steps.

Who Should Consider the Galleri Test?

The Galleri test is recommended for adults who have an elevated risk for developing cancer, especially those aged 50 and older. This age group faces a 13-times higher risk for cancer compared to younger adults, making proactive screening particularly important. Galleri is intended to be used alongside — not as a replacement for — the cancer screening tests your healthcare provider already recommends, such as mammograms, colonoscopies, PSA tests, and cervical screenings.

How Does the Galleri Test Work?

All cells in the body, whether healthy or cancerous, release DNA into the bloodstream. The DNA from cancer cells carries unique markers that set it apart from healthy DNA. The Galleri test uses advanced technology trained on a large database of DNA samples from thousands of cancer patients and healthy individuals. With this information, Galleri can detect the presence of a cancer signal and predict where in the body it originated, offering valuable insights to guide further diagnostic testing and care.

Important Things to Know

  • Galleri is a screening test, not a diagnostic test. If a cancer signal is detected, further diagnostic testing is required.
  • It looks for active cancer but does not predict your future genetic risk.
  • It should always be used in addition to your regular, guideline-recommended screenings.
  • No screening is perfect: false positives and false negatives can occur, and not all cancers can be detected through blood.

Test for Over 50 Types of Cancer – Especially the Most Common

Everyone is at risk for cancer, some more than others. You might know that cancer runs in your family’s genetics. You might be aware of certain lifestyle factors that can lead to cancer. Either way, Galleri can keep you informed about your health.

By testing for over 50 types of cancer, Galleri covers all of the most common cancer types. For example, the four cancers listed below account for over 50% of new cancer cases in the US.**** Yes, Galleri tests for these!

Breast Cancer

One of the most common cancers in women, breast cancer typically has routine screening through mammography. However, Galleri adds an extra layer by detecting cancer signals that might not yet be visible on imaging or for individuals with less frequent screening access.

Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death, often detected late because early-stage disease usually has no symptoms. While low-dose CT scans are recommended for some high-risk groups, Galleri offers an additional noninvasive screening option to catch early signals of lung or bronchus cancer.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, typically screened using PSA (prostate-specific antigen) testing. Galleri can complement PSA screening by detecting additional cancer signals through a blood test, offering broader insights into prostate health.

Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer is typically screened using colonoscopy or stool-based tests. Galleri provides a noninvasive way to screen for colorectal cancer alongside these methods, which may help identify cancer signals in people who delay or skip their colonoscopy.
