Predisposition testing for inherited breast cancer.

Oncology (Williston Park, N.Y.) - 1 Aug 1998

Cummings S, Olopade O

Abstract excerpt

Predisposition testing (i.e., genetic testing that provides information about a person's susceptibility to disease) is now available for several inherited forms of cancer. Individuals who are found to have an altered gene (e.g., a germ-line mutation in a cancer susceptibility gene) have a higher risk of developing cancer than those who do not carry an altered gene. Therefore, predisposition testing can be a...
