Genomic sequencing can identify genetic variants that may eventually lead to diseases or increase an individual’s risk of developing a specific disease.
There have been incredible advances in genomic testing over the past two decades, particularly the rapid development of next-generation sequencing (NGS). NGS is a well-established technology that relies on parallel sequencing of multiple small fragments of DNA, a process that dramatically reduces the time it takes to sequence an individual’s genome.
Genomic sequencing can identify genetic variants that may eventually lead to diseases such as cancer or Alzheimer’s or increase an individual’s risk of developing a specific disease. This valuable information can empower clinicians to take proactive measures to prevent the disease in individuals. In cases where a...
