Many decisions in medical care are made with incomplete or imprecise information. A new series of testing and analysis called Precision Medicine is available at the Kahn Center and other advanced clinics. A focus on a blood test for 50 cancers called Galleri is presented for consideration.

Dr. Kahn discusses his experience having most of these tests in the last few years. A brief discussion of the negative impacts of inhibiting vitamin K metabolism with warfarin (Coumadin) on heart valve status kicks off the weekly podcast.
