I took a CtDNA or circulating tumor blood test a couple weeks ago, and just got the results. I like to use my stage 4 cancer vlog as a way to show people what life is like for a cancer patient - whether it's during treatment or in remission as I am right now.
Even in remission, there are lots of diagnostic tests done to monitor my status, and they help keep me calm from a mental health perspective. The CtDNA test is a relatively new technology, and it will help doctors and patients have a better understanding of what is happening on a more refined basis than just scans.
Stick around for the sweet cameo from my oncologist, Dr. Brian DiCarlo, as he explains the entry-level science for this new technology.
As always, I hope you enjoy the video, and please do like and subscribe if you haven't already.
Byyyyeeeee
