More Information About Hereditary Genetic Tests
A (CGx) carcinogenetic test identifies specific, inheritable gene mutations that may increase a person’s risk of developing or redeveloping cancer. Gain insight as this test will analyzes genes and tumor markers, including BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, COH1, MLH1, HSH2, MSH6 and PTEN.

A mutation in one or more of these genes can indicate an increased risk of cancer, including breast, ovarian, colorectal or prostate. It could also determine a predisposition towards cardiovascular disease, alzheimers, dementia or parkinson's disease. Pharmacogenetics test can determine how you respond to drug therapy based upon your genetic makeup or genes.
