Multi-Cancer Early Detection Test (Galleri®) in Manhattan, NY
Early cancer detection saves lives. Our advanced multi-cancer blood test—powered by Galleri®—can identify over 50 types of cancer, often before symptoms appear. If you’re searching for a cancer screening near me, we offer trusted, science-backed options right here in Manhattan.
Why Early Detection Matters
Most cancers go unnoticed until they reach advanced stages. According to the American Cancer Society, over 70% of cancer deaths in the U.S. come from cancers with no recommended screening tests.
At Manhattan Medical Arts, we help you take control with a single, non-invasive cancer detection test that looks for signals linked to more than 50 cancers—including hard-to-detect types like pancreatic, liver, and ovarian.
How the Galleri®
Blood Test Works
The Galleri blood test, developed by GRAIL, uses advanced genomic sequencing and AI-based analysis to detect fragments of DNA shed by cancer cells into the bloodstream (called cfDNA – cell-free DNA). These unique markers may point to the presence of cancer, even before symptoms arise.
