Overview
Colorectal cancer begins when cells in the intestine undergo genetic mutations. These mutated tumor cells shed into the intestines, and their DNA can be detected in stool samples using advanced PCR technology.
What is PCR Technology?
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a cutting-edge method used to:
- Rapidly amplify DNA, creating millions or even billions of copies from a very small sample.
- Enable detailed analysis of DNA, even with minute amounts.
How ColoCam DX® Works
ColoCam DX® utilizes proprietary methods to analyze cell DNA for specific tumor markers. Its innovative approach makes it possible to:
- Detect tumor DNA with high accuracy.
- Identify up to 95% of colorectal cancer cases, often at the earliest stages of the disease.
Advantages of ColoCam
- High Sensitivity: Designed to detect colorectal cancer with exceptional accuracy.
- Ease-of-Use: Requires very small stool samples compared to traditional screening methods.
