Trusted by Leaders in Veterinary Research and Clinical Practice
“Our profession has been searching for an ease of use, affordable and accurate blood test that can serve as an aid in cancer diagnosis and a tool for treatment monitoring. CFD has the potential to fundamentally improve how cancer treatments are planned in the future, providing better outcomes for our patients and clarity for their families.”

What is the CFD® Biomarker?
The CFD® biomarker measures circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) levels in blood, which correlates with cell destruction in the body. This powerful clinical insight helps veterinarians assess disease severity, detect hidden conditions, and monitor treatment efficacy across acute emergencies and chronic disease management.
