About
Advanced health check, an essential component of proactive healthcare, encompasses a comprehensive assessment of various general health markers that are crucial for evaluating an individual's overall well-being. This includes the measurement of cholesterol levels, which can indicate the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and blood glucose levels to assess the risk of diabetes. In addition to these standard tests, advanced health checks incorporate specialised screenings for tumour markers. These markers are substances, often proteins, that are produced by cancer cells or by the body in response to cancer, and their presence in the blood can be indicative of certain types of malignancies. By integrating these tumour marker tests into routine health assessments, healthcare providers can facilitate the early detection of serious illnesses, allowing for timely intervention and treatment. This early identification is vital, as it significantly enhances the chances of successful treatment outcomes and can lead to improved survival rates for patients. Additionally, you will have an ECG in the appointment to review cardiac health. Thus, an advanced health check serves not only as a tool for monitoring general health but also as a critical strategy in the early diagnosis of potentially life-threatening conditions.
Included are all the tests in the General 'MOT' and the following additional tests:
ECG - 12 lead ECG done in the appointment and reported by a Cardiologist
