Nu.Q Cancer Screening
The Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test is an affordable and accessible screening test to aid early detection.
By measuring and analyzing nucleosomes, our Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test can help identify patients who may have a cancer. This must then be confirmed by follow-up procedures – for example, a biopsy or scan.
The Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test can detect cancers such as lymphoma and hemangiosarcoma, even at early stages. Preliminary data suggests that this screening test can also detect some instances of Mast Cell tumors, malignant melanomas and Histiocytic Sarcoma. The current Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test more reliably detects systemic cancers rather than soft tissue or localized cancers.
In a peer-reviewed and published case series, the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test was shown to detect 76% of systemic cancers.
77% lymphoma
82% hemangiosarcoma
54% histiocytic sarcoma
