Biophysical CA/CV
The Most Advanced Cancer and Cardiovascular Surveillance Available
What is Biophysical CA/CV?
The BiophysicalCA/CV is a tool for people who want to enhance their personal health surveillance program for cancer and cardiovascular disease. Many people want to be proactive in their approach to these diseases so they make healthy lifestyle choices, participate in routine screening exams, (like mammography and colonoscopy), have routine cholesterol checks and are attentive to changes that may happen in their bodies. But some people want more.
One component of the BiophysicalCA/CV is a unique panel of biomarkers that are commonly elevated in people who have cancer. The biomarkers are typically associated with colon, liver, lung (small cell lung cancer), breast, ovarian, testicular, prostate, pancreatic, and other types of cancer. In general, minor elevations usually indicate a non-cancerous condition, while major elevations or rapid increases are more indicative of cancer. Of course, a physician should evaluate any elevation. We stress that this panel is not a definitive “test for cancer”. Rather, it is to be used as part of an overall wellness program.
The other component of the BiophysicalCA/CV is a comprehensive evaluation of your unique cholesterol/lipid profile. Cardiologists now understand that just measuring cholesterol, HDL, and LDI, provide only a partial picture of cardiovascular risk. The cholesterol/lipid profile completes this picture, providing a thorough analysis of the many factors that can affect your susceptibility to heart attack and stroke.
Biophysical CA/CV includes the following cancer associated biomarkers
| CA 125 | CEA | PSA, Total | MMP2 |
| CA 15-3 | AFP | beta-hCG | MMP9 |
| CA 19-9 | NSE | VEGF | IL-6 |
Biophysical CA/CV includes the following cardiovascular-associated biomarkers
| Sum Total Cholesterol | Total Non-HDL (LDL + VLDL) | IDL Cholesterol | HDL-2 |
| Total LDL-Direct | Total apoB100 calc | LDL Real Cholesterol | HDL-3 |
| Total HDL-Direct | Sum Total LDL-C | Real LDL-C Size pattern | VLDL-3 |
| Total VLDL-Direct | Lipoprotein (a) | Remnant Lipoproteins (IDL+VLDL3) | CRP |
Biophysical CA/CV is an Annual Testing Program
BiophysicalCA/CV is most informative when you have established your personal biomarker baseline with your first year’s test. Some people naturally run “high” or “low” for many of these markers, so much more importance is attached to the year-to-year change in levels than to any single measurement. A dramatic increase in any cancer biomarker from one year to the next warrants further medical evaluation. The cholesterol/lipid test highlights physiological risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Physicians can treat these risk factors through various medications and lifestyle changes. BiophysicalCA/CV can be repeated to check that treatment is effectively managing risk factors.
Established Science
BiophysicalCA/CV biomarkers are routinely used by physicians to monitor cancer and cardiovascular disease. Biomarker applications are rapidly expanding in every field of medicine, and BiophysicalCA/CV brings this new technology to patients and their physicians at an affordable price.
