Multi-gene Panels
Multi-gene panels are tests that analyze multiple genes at once to identify genetic mutations that may increase the risk of certain diseases, particularly cancers. Instead of testing one gene at a time, these panels provide a broader view by examining several genes related to a specific condition. This approach allows for a more comprehensive understanding of an individual's genetic risk, aiding in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment decisions. Multi-gene panels are increasingly used in medical settings to personalize healthcare and improve outcomes based on a person's genetic profile.
