The simultaneous detection of multiple cancers with high specificity via novel blood-based tests has potentially made “universal cancer screening" a goal within reach of many clinicians. As an OB/GYN and/or frontline care provider, are you prepared for this new world of cancer screening? Find out by viewing this CME/MOC video activity, where an expert panel offers case-based perspectives on blood-based cancer screening tools as a complement to current screening methodologies, and what the emergence of multi-cancer early detection tests (MCEDs) means for OB/GYN practice. Watch this video today to gain practical insights on cancer screening in OB/GYN patient care and earn a CME/MOC credit. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Assess the scientific basis and clinical utility of multi-cancer early detection (MCED) testing in OB/GYN practice, including available evidence on sensitivity, specificity, and tumor localization accuracy, as well as anticipated impacts on cancer outcomes; Develop strategies to appropriately integrate MCED testing into routine OB/GYN practice, based on a thorough understanding of how, in whom, and when these tests should be used; Update clinical practice workflows to optimize and streamline the follow-up of abnormal cancer screening results, including the implementation of processes to ensure timely referrals to oncology specialists; and Apply best practices to improve patient utilization of cancer screening services (both conventional and MCED-based), including the delivery of effective patient education/counseling and engagement in shared decision-making
