Prospective comparison of family medical history with personal genome screening for risk assessment of common cancers.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 May 2012

Heald Brandie, Edelman Emily, Eng Charis

Abstract excerpt

Family history-based risk assessment (FHRA) is a genetic tool for identifying those at risk of disease. Genome-wide association studies have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) are statistically associated with low- to moderate-level risks of diseases. There has been limited study of complementarity for these two assessment methods. We sought to compare cancer risk categorizations from FHRA and from...
