A member asked:
History of invasive breast cancer since 2006. oncologist ran a ctc test, came back positive with level of 1 ctc. does this mean i have metastasis now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ask your ordering dr: Glad you have well survived from invasive breast cancer. Your current CTC 0f 1 suggests your further survival is very favorable; that's good clinically. For more, review article in https://www.cellsearchctc.com/clinical-applications/interpretation-of-results. Of course, it would be most logical to ask the ordering oncologist since s/he knows more about your individual conditions than anyone online
