Cancer 50 Gene Panel NGS Test
Introduction
The Cancer 50 Gene Panel NGS Test is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool designed to detect genetic mutations associated with various types of cancer. Utilizing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, this test provides an in-depth analysis of 50 critical genes that play a significant role in cancer development and progression. Understanding these genetic markers is crucial for tailoring personalized treatment options and improving patient outcomes.
What the Test Measures
This test measures the presence of mutations in genes such as ABL1, EGFR, KRAS, and TP53, among others. These mutations can indicate susceptibility to certain cancers and help oncologists make informed decisions regarding treatment strategies.
Who Should Consider This Test
Individuals who may benefit from the Cancer 50 Gene Panel NGS Test include:
- Those with a family history of cancer.
- Patients experiencing unexplained symptoms related to cancer.
