(Scottsdale, AZ)  – Any Lab Test Now (www.anylabtestnow.com/arizona) the nation’s fastest-growing retail healthcare testing facility has announced that they are now offering Provista Life Sciences’ blood test for breast cancer, the BT Test®.  The BT Test for breast cancer is processed at Provista Diagnostics, the CLIA certified laboratory service arm of Provista Life Sciences, and has been available since March of 2008.  The Provista Web site (http://www.provistals.com/BTTest.aspx) contains an order form that can be downloaded, completed and taken to Any Lab Test Now to receive the blood test.

According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer accounts for more than one in four cancers diagnosed in U.S. women, with only the incidence of lung cancer being higher.  Statistics show that approximately 40,500 women died from breast cancer in 2007.  One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, and though mammograms are useful in detecting breast cancer, they may not be enough.  When used in conjunction with exiting imaging modalities and best practices for breast cancer detection, the BT Test has the ability to assist healthcare practitioners in their efforts to detect breast cancer earlier when intervention is most successful. 

“We are very happy to be able to offer this test and help protect the health of the numerous women out there that may be at risk of contracting this threatening disease.  Our goal is to help local residents take control of their own health and address health issues early on before they pose a serious health risk,” said Jeri Seidel, managing partner for Any Lab Test Now in Scottsdale.  “Those that are at high risk or with family members that have had breast cancer can now take advantage of the Provista BT test as well as have regular mammograms and conduct self checks to insure that they are taking all necessary precautions to maintain good health.”

In addition to the BT Test, Any Lab Test Now offers numerous standard healthcare tests including cholesterol, glucose, liver function, thyroid, STD’s, Thyroid, Prostate Cancer Screening (PSA), Ovarian Cancer Screening (CA125), drug screening, pregnancy (shows fetal age) and paternity testing that will hold up in a court of law.  Any Lab Test Now also serves the employer community with drug screening, background checks, on-site testing and any other lab testing they may require.
