Genetic Testing
Genetic testing is a laboratory procedure used to analyze and identify changes in an individual's chromosomes, genes, or proteins. It is used to detect heritable diseases, as well as to determine the likelihood of developing a particular disorder or condition in the future. The results of genetic testing can lead to earlier diagnosis, improved management, or even prevention of certain diseases for those who are at risk. Additionally, it can help to determine the proper treatments and medications for individual patients based on their genetic makeup. With the increased use of sophisticated technology, genetic testing has become more accessible and cost-effective and can provide important information to improve patient care.
