\"\"CPS stands for “Cancer Predisposition Syndrome” and describes genetic changes that increase the risk of developing cancer.<\/p>\n

As an individual with suspected CPS, you may think, “There’s that too!”. This is often the case when the suspicion of CPS is the result of a recent cancer diagnosis or a family history of cancer. Both of these situations are stressful enough. Then comes the suspicion of a CPS, which for many people means facing the possibility of other cancers throughout their lives.<\/p>\n

With this in mind, it is important to investigate any suspicion of CPS. If the suspicion is confirmed, intensive cancer screening may be needed to detect and treat new cancers as soon as possible. If the suspicion is not confirmed, this information is also important – and most importantly, reassuring – for those affected.<\/p>\n
