Peace of Mind for Childhood Cancer Concerns
When you notice unusual symptoms in your child, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our Neuroblastoma Profile 24-Hour Urine Test provides the clarity South African families need, offering reliable early detection of one of the most common childhood cancers. We understand the anxiety that comes with potential health concerns, which is why we’ve made this advanced screening accessible and affordable across South Africa.
Understanding Your Neuroblastoma Screening
This specialised test measures two crucial biomarkers in urine – Vanillyl Mandelic Acid (VMA) and Homovanillic Acid (HVA). These substances are produced by neuroblastoma tumours, making them reliable indicators for early detection. Using advanced High Performance Liquid Chromatography technology, we provide accurate results that help oncologists make informed decisions about your child’s health.
Is This Test Right for Your Child?
Consider this screening if your child experiences:
- Unexplained abdominal swelling or masses
- Bone pain or limping without injury
- Unexplained fever or weight loss
- Changes in eye movement or pupil size
- Persistent fatigue or weakness
- High blood pressure in a young child
Early detection is particularly important for children with family history of neuroblastoma or those showing multiple concerning symptoms.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family
Neuroblastoma detected early has significantly better treatment outcomes. This test provides:
- Peace of mind through accurate results
- Early intervention opportunities when treatment is most effective
- Clear guidance for your healthcare team
- Reduced anxiety through definitive answers
- Better planning for your child’s healthcare journey
Understanding Your Results Without Anxiety
Our comprehensive report provides clear, easy-to-understand results with expert interpretation. We explain what elevated VMA and HVA levels mean in simple terms, and our medical team is available to discuss next steps. Remember – abnormal results don’t necessarily mean cancer is present, but they do indicate when further investigation is needed.
