2 What is the Gattuso Rapid Diagnostic Centre? The Gattuso Rapid Diagnostic Centre (GRDC) helps people quickly find out if they have breast cancer. Most breast changes are not breast cancer. Providing an answer quickly means that many people will spend less time worrying. For those who find out they have cancer, it means they get treatment sooner. Within several days, the centre will give you: an assessment diagnostic testing (imaging and biopsies as needed) a plan for follow-up care or treatment If you need more care, the centre will help you arrange future appointments.
