Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The potential role of genetic testing in families with an inherited pattern of melanoma is a complex issue, and yet limited data exist on perceptions of predictive genetic testing for mutations among individuals at high risk of melanoma. METHODOLOGY: Forty semi-structured interviews were undertaken with affected and unaffected individuals at either high or average risk of developing melanoma due to...
