Since multi-cancer early detection (MCED) testing is a new technology, there’s been some discussion in the field about the impact it may have on patients, especially in terms of potential psychological harm like anxiety related to positive test results and false positive test results. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to discuss findings from a recent qualitative survey and the DETECT-A study focusing on how MCED testing may impact patient anxiety are Dr. Christopher Chambers and Mr. Adam Buchanan. Dr. Chambers is a Professor and Director of Clinical Trials at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, and Mr. Buchanan is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Genomic Health at Geisinger in Danville, Pennsylvania.
