Pancreatic Cancer Genetic Counselling

Pancreatic cancer genetic counseling is a process where individuals at risk for pancreatic cancer receive information and support about their genetic risk. A trained counselor evaluates family history and may recommend genetic testing for mutations associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer, such as BRCA1, BRCA2, and others. The counselor explains the implications of test results, guides individuals on risk management strategies, and helps families understand their options for prevention and early detection. This personalized approach empowers individuals to make informed decisions regarding their health.
