Genetic tests to identify risk for breast cancer.

Seminars in oncology nursing - 1 May 2015

Lynch Julie A, Venne Vickie, Berse Brygida

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To describe the currently available genetic tests that identify hereditary risk for breast cancer. DATA SOURCES: Systematic review of scientific literature, clinical practice guidelines, and data published by test manufacturers. CONCLUSION: Changes in gene patent laws and advances in sequencing technologies have resulted in rapid expansion of genetic testing. While BRCA1/2 are the most recognized...
