Family Screening

Family screening refers to the process of evaluating relatives of individuals diagnosed with certain hereditary conditions, such as genetic disorders or cancers. The goal is to identify family members who may be at risk for the same conditions, allowing for early detection and intervention. This can involve genetic testing, medical assessments, and personalized health plans based on family history. By addressing potential health issues proactively, family screening helps improve outcomes and inform families about their health risks, fostering informed decision-making regarding prevention and management strategies.
