RAGs: A Novel Approach to Computerized Genetic Risk Assessment and Decision Support from Pedigrees

1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To assist general practitioners in evaluating patients' genetic risk of cancer on the basis of family history data. METHODS: A new computer application, RAGs (Risk Assessment in Genetics), has been developed to help doctors create graphical family trees and assess the genetic risk of breast and colorectal cancer. RAGs possesses two features that distinguish it from similar software: (i) a user-centred...
