Prognostic Markers
Prognostic markers are a type of biomarker that are used to predict the future course of a disease or to indicate a patient’s risk of developing a disease. They are used to identify early-stage diseases and to track the progress of a disease over time. Prognostic markers can be used to identify a patient’s risk for developing diseases like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Additionally, they can be used to monitor the efficacy of treatments and to tailor treatments to individual patients. By providing valuable information about a patient’s health, prognostic markers can help physicians make informed decisions about patient care.
