Hereditary cancer-health insights
CancerSpot helps you explore whether inherited cancer information may be relevant to your family health question carefully, with clear limits, and never as a substitute for clinical assessment.
Ask about the right routeHow it works
Family history can raise important questions.
Understanding where
to begin should feel
calm and clear.
If you have a new lump, unexplained bleeding, a significant change in health, or any urgent concern, please contact a qualified clinician promptly. CancerSpot does not provide urgent assessment, diagnosis or treatment advice through this website.
Is CancerSpot the suitable route?
CancerSpot may be a helpful starting point when you want to understand whether a hereditary cancer-health conversation could be relevant not when you need a diagnosis today.
Your CancerSpot journey
Read what CancerSpot is designed to explore, and the questions it cannot answer on its own.
Ask GenWell about the route, the report and whether a different next step may be more appropriate.
When appropriate, consent, sample and the laboratory pathway are confirmed through the correct process.
Use the report as a starting point. A clinician or genetic consultation may be helpful for some findings.
