Genetic testing and personalized ovarian cancer screening: a survey of public attitudes

26 Jul 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Advances in genetic technologies are expected to make population-wide genetic testing feasible. This could provide a basis for risk stratified cancer screening; but acceptability in the target populations has not been explored. METHODS: We assessed attitudes to risk-stratified ovarian cancer (OC) screening based on prior genetic risk assessment using a survey design. Home-based interviews were carried...
