Screenings help find cancers early, before they spread.
Genetics can identify your inherited risks of cancer.
Analysis can find indicators of disease in the body.
3D advanced imaging scans can detect warning signs of cancers and disease.
Together, these insights provide a clear and detailed picture of your health, enabling you and your doctor to make informed decisions about disease risk, prevention, and management.
The integrated report provides a summary of your genetic testing results and simplifies the patient experience.

Providing convenience and confidence for patients seeking early detection
“I highly recommend genetic testing for all women, especially if they have a history of breast cancer in their family, even if it is just one family member.”
— Ashley Cithaml
HALO is empowering better health by enabling patients to get diagnosed early and on a precise treatment pathway faster than ever before. This is possible through:
Using this approach, time from screening to diagnosis is faster and more convenient, cutting weeks or months down to just days. HALO also provides support for care coordination so you can spend more time taking care of you.
The key piece of our precision diagnostics is the HALO PathWay™ for breast. By streamlining genetic testing and breast imaging, patients get the testing they need. During your appointment, saliva is collected and sent out to be analyzed. The lab results from your saliva testing are combined with your imaging results into a patient-friendly report sent to your doctor. The HALO PrecisionReport™ is an integrated, holistic report providing a 360-degree view of the patient’s condition and hereditary risks. Based on clinical guidelines, the report will also include recommendations and next steps.
At your annual mammogram visit done at a HALO Precision Diagnostic Center, you will be asked to spit in a test tube. The DNA in your saliva will then be used for genetic testing. When testing identifies high-risk patients, including those with BRCA gene variants, additional breast MRI screening may be recommended.
This added screening increases the cancer detection rate by three times in high-risk women.⁵ Detecting cancer is the first step to an earlier diagnosis. Cancer that is diagnosed earlier also requires less invasive surgery and treatment for improved outcomes.
