The Liv Silver Male Cancer Screening Package includes a detailed general examination, cardiology and urology exams, as well as laboratory and imaging tests for common male cancers.
Expert Examinations
- Check-Up Examination: Physical evaluation of your general health status by the doctor and interpretation of all results.
- Cardiology Examination: A detailed evaluation of your cardiovascular health by a cardiologist.
- Urology Examination: Evaluation of the kidneys, urinary tract and male reproductive health, particularly by a urologist.
- Chest Examination: An evaluation of your respiratory system and lung health by a specialist.
- Dental Examination: Evaluation of your oral and dental health and early detection of potential problems.
Advanced Radiological Imaging
- MRI, Brain (Non-contrast): Detailed examination of brain tissue and structure, stroke or tumor risks with MRI.
- MRI, Whole Abdomen (Non-contrast): Detailed imaging of all intra-abdominal organs (liver, kidney, pancreas, etc.) with MRI.
- CT, Thorax (Non-contrast): A detailed tomography scan in which the lungs and chest cavity are examined cross-sectionally.
- US, Thyroid: Used to evaluate the structure, size and possible nodules of the thyroid gland.
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): Measures the electrical activity and rhythm of the heart (at rest).
- Cardiovascular Stress Test (Exercise): An ECG is taken during exercise (treadmill) to investigate how the heart works under load and whether there is coronary artery disease.
- Transthoracic Echocardiography (ECHO): This is a heart ultrasound. It examines the structure, valves, and pumping function of the heart in detail.
Laboratory Tests
Tumor Markers (Cancer Screening)
- Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Test (Total and Free): These are critical markers used in the evaluation of prostate health and especially prostate cancer risk.
- Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP): It is a risk marker, especially for liver cancer and some germ cell tumors.
- Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA): It is a follow-up marker in various types of cancer, especially colon (bowel) cancer.
- CA-19-9: Used in the monitoring of digestive system cancers, especially pancreatic cancer.
- Beta-HCG: It is a hormone used in the diagnosis and follow-up of some tumor types, especially during pregnancy.
- Calcitonin Test: It is a hormone secreted by the thyroid gland that regulates calcium levels (may be elevated in some thyroid cancers).
Hormones and Men's Health
- Testosterone, Total: The primary male hormone, important for men’s health, sexual function and overall energy levels.
- Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Used to evaluate the functions of the thyroid gland (goiter).
- T4 (Thyroxine), Free: Measures the active (free) form of the primary hormone produced by the thyroid gland.
- Intact Parathyroid Hormone (iPTH): It is the parathyroid gland hormone that regulates calcium and bone metabolism.
Hematology, Anemia and Inflammation
- Complete Blood Count (Hemogram): Used to screen for anemia, infection conditions and various blood diseases.
- Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR – Sedimentation): It is used to investigate general infection and inflammatory conditions (inflammation) in the body.
- C Reactive Protein (CRP): It is a sensitive marker that shows the status of infection and inflammation in the body.
- Iron, Serum: Measures the level of iron in the blood.
- Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC): Indicates the body’s capacity to bind and transport iron.
- Ferritin : Shows the status of the body’s iron stores and is important in the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia.
